Highway 14

The Star Tribune has a story today about Highway 14, the main highway that runs across southern Minnesota and skirts the edge of my hometown, Kasson. I've driven that highways thousands upon thousands of times going back and forth to Rochester or between Kasson and New Ulm, when I worked there earlier in my career. The story says the two-lane portions of the highway make it the most deadly roadway in the state of Minnesota. They've been talking about widening that road for as long as I can remember. Scary that the state can't seem to get it done.
