Cartoon from the Walton Sun

I'm not sure where T Pagels gets his or her info from, but it will takes tremendous amounts of money to four-lane 331 and the bridges spanning the Bay. I believe estimated costs of the bridges alone was around $250 million, and may be higher now as fuel prices seem to be driving up the cost of everything. Energy and effort by vocal locals won't make it happen. It will take funding by the State, and with the budget cutbacks, you won't see it happen this year, though it is in the works. When I saw it show up on the strategic planning time line goal list for the North West Florida Transportation Corridor Authority, I stopped worrying about it so much. The blue signs were a simple thing to tackle. You might want to do a little more research on the expense of four-laning 331, before writing cartoons about it comparing it to the blue signs. ;-)
