    4-laning Hwy 9 south of 78 has been approved and in MDOT’s plans since 87′. 20 years ago. It’s called “vision 21″. Hwy 9 is a big link when traveling East/West. One plan has it going more North/South and bypassing Pontotoc, to Trace state park? Hope they don’t slow down traffic to make Toyota happy.

    I believe they have approved 4-laning Hwy 15 up & down the whole state. Totota politics have taken over MDOT now, and they let Hwy 348 cut in front of everyone. It was not even thought of in “vision 21″ and is a low traffic road.

    Highway 9 also will help the employies and customers of that area to get to the new Totota plant more easyer. North East Mississippi has been looseing everything to China, So this is also good news for North Mississippi.
    Every one will win when all is finished with this road and totota plant.
    I am all for it.
