Members of the Davison County Commission say they’re upset with a plan that would change a key intersection in Mitchell when it’s reconstructed by the South Dakota Department of Transportation later this decade.
During a recent meeting in Mitchell, the commission said they were frustrated that the DOT’s plan for the reconstruction of the intersection of North Main Street and the Highway 37 bypass/Fairoaks Avenue doesn’t include free-right turn lanes when reconstruction is planned for 2024.
