Road official proposes "local traffic only" signs for 250 Road after nearby terminal opened
Summary
General Superintendent Jay Johanek told commissioners that traffic on 250 Road from the county line to Highway 36 has increased since the CVA terminal opened in Republic County and proposed installing "local traffic only" signs similar to adjacent counties.
Jay Johanek, General Superintendent for Jewell County Road & Bridge, told commissioners on April 13 that traffic on 250 Road, between the county line and Highway 36, has risen since the CVA terminal opened in neighboring Republic County.
Johanek proposed posting "local traffic only" signs, noting Cloud and Republic counties have used that approach. "Local traffic only" was the specific phrase Johanek said he wanted to use to discourage through commercial traffic on the county road.
The commissioners heard the proposal but did not take formal action during the meeting. Johanek indicated the department will consider signage options and coordination with neighboring counties and state agencies as needed.
