Comment EI-23481
Received or sent (printed as 6/7/2016)
It looks like the proposed GLBT rail line will be running through farm fields and dead ending some of the county roads. This will mean that farm machinery will have to travel long distances to get to the other side of the field. Not only will farmers have to contend with farming smaller fields and forced to travel with these large pieces of equipment that take up more than one lane on the road, but they will be dealing with more traffic on the roads that are still open. As a matter of fact, the traffic that is on the roads that are still open is probably going to be in more of a hurry due to waiting for a train to pass at a grade crossing leading to more unsafe conditions.
