How do we get it back on track? Thats the question being asked in the wake of Penndot's stunning announcement earlier this week about dropping plans for a major area highway project. Penndot says they simply don't have the money for a new road way in eastern Centre County, but there's fears the already dangerous conditions there will only get worse. When we first broke this story earlier this week, it left many stunned about penndot dropping plans to upgrade the Route 322/144 corridor. It has been in the study and planning phase for more than two decades. Today we talked to a state legislator and others who all say we need to keep this project on Penndots radar screen. Termed the south central project in Centre County, envisioned to better handle trucks and traffic to Interstate Eighty. Its another reason Penndot's timing seems odd. Many here want to keep this project rolling. For the route 322/144 corridor study, Penndot already spending more than 7 million dollars. Community meetings have been ongoing for nearly five years, but now Penndot says it could be a decade a more before the 322/144 corridor study makes it back to planing stage.
