The cvst is a better investment. 15 miles for $1billion and the first half already has 3000 trucks a day and it’s a growing area with many distribution centers and the 81 is ten times more congested. The mon fayette should go down as one of the dumbest highways ever constructed. If they had started building it at the monroville end first, it would have been easier to cancel or indefinitely delay the rural segments but those fuckers screwed us and built the most useless parts first. I wonder what the total cost for all segments of the mon fayette costs inflation adjusted.

I work in Selinsgrove and live in Middleburg. This needs to be done. Anyone who has navigated the “golden strip” of 11/15 knows how bad the traffic sucks and most of it is thru traffic.

It will be a huge economic boon to the local economy to have traffic that actually WANT to be in the area instead of trying to get where they’re going.
