Letter to the editor: Petition calls for safety upgrade for Highway 16 near jail

Two deer were hit on the same day, a reader writes

Highway signs warn drivers of the possibility of deer crossing the road.

Highway 16 westbound on Jail Road is hazardous, lacking lighting and warning signs on a curved incline.

Last Thursday, two deer were hit within hours of each other, so I launched the petition “Improve Highway 16 Safety” on Change.org.

With 350-plus signatures in three days, the community demands action.
