Madison—Thursday, Representative Scott Johnson (R) of the 33rd Assembly District met with Department of Transportation Secretary, Craig Thompson to discuss a major highway project within the district.
“I was very grateful to the secretary for taking the time to meet with me so I could inform him of the issue on Highway 59. In the near future, housing developments will be a reality along with an already very busy road corridor for transportation resulting from summer recreation.
Secretary Thompson understood that my main priority with regard to this project and any road construction job in our state is safety. I believe that is his priority as well.
One of the pillars of my campaign for this office was to address the crumbling infrastructure in our state. We must fix our roads and bridges while making certain we are providing efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable solutions to these problems.
I look forward to continuing a positive, professional relationship with the secretary and his staff, especially with regard to work that impacts school bus safety.”
