Tonganoxie in midst of ‘game’ over CR1
The Leavenworth County Commissioners have hit the ball into the city’s court with a draft form of an interlocal agreement that will decide the future of County Road 1.
CR1 interchange will be automated
The new turnpike interchange at Leavenworth County Road 1 not only will be the first new exit on the toll highway since the Lecompton interchange opened a dozen years ago.
CR1 should be ready by November
Work to build a wider, smoother, safer Leavenworth County Road 1 is still on track for a November 2009 completion, project superintendent Ryan Blosser says.

Point of View
What’s the best way to spend a snow day?
Shovel your driveway and paths, check neighbors’ driveways and then grab all your closest little ones and find the biggest sledding hill. Snowmen also are a must. Snow days are a great time to catch up on missed shows and much-needed rest. I love snowdays, they haven’t changed one bit even as an adult, although I am sure not all working adults can say that, but I am happy I can. I was excited to see the snowmen and other snow sculptures throughout the Lawrence and Kansas City metro areas.
