Yeah, uh, Rod Hanson with North Lakes. My apologies earlier for getting the agenda out of order. Um, as I was saying, um, I didn't hear any discussion tonight during your debate about the fundamental issue we were concerned about, and that is the safety issues around that Engstrom-Bogard intersection and the stretch of Bogard.

If the southern route was constructed, those dump trucks would go on and off the southern route and not go through that roundabout.
