When all the construction on Highways 10 and 169 was going on, drivers had to think of creative ways to get around it.

When talking to the students at Spectrum, they gave insight into what it takes to get around or go through this rising traffic.

“Just to avoid the construction I would have to take a three-mile detour”
Says JB Kolby.

Some people have the option to go around the construction.

“To avoid the construction I go over the railroad, it gets pretty backed up but it’s better then the construction,” says Lily Clarine.

Hopefully all this back up causes a cleaner flow of traffic in the future.
