A Better Highway 54

Northeast Missouri needs to complete its extension of the US 54 corridor by upgrading it to a shared four-lane highway to support economic development, provide safer travel and provide more efficiency. A shared four-lane highway is being proposed by a concerned group of citizens to help this happen. This site is designed to answer your questions. 

Shared 4 Lanes are proven to be not only faster and cheaper, but much safer to the public than 2 Lane highways. A 4 Lane allows for more consistent traffic flow, for 75% less than 2 Lane roads, and reduce severe injury crashes by 55%. Click HERE for more information.
