Transportation is Something That Affects Every One of Us Each Day.

Morris Main Street August 15 2019

We go to work, our kids get on the school bus, trucks bring goods to stock the shelves at Price Chopper and Walmart. Things can hit close to home here in the Butternut Valley. State highways are the main streets in our villages. We may live on a quiet village street, but there are no sidewalks, forcing us to walk in the street. We may live on a rural Town road where cars seem to drive too fast.

Steve Gayle will present some ideas and engage us in a conversation about how we can provide a safe travel environment  for all users.
