Midland County announced the grand opening of the West County Road (WCR) 120 extension on July 17, a project linking Antelope Trail and County Road (CR) 1210. The extension represents a milestone in Midland County’s efforts to improve transportation and accessibility in the region, according to a Midland County press release.
The WCR 120 extension project, which involved a $2.8 million investment, was funded through tax dollars to enhance local infrastructure and promote economic growth. The new connection is expected to alleviate traffic congestion, shorten travel times, and provide a safer, more efficient route for commuters and residents, according to the Midland County Government.
One of the benefits of the WCR 120 extension is its potential to reduce traffic congestion in the area by providing a more direct route between Antelope Trail and CR 1210. The alternative route will help distribute traffic more evenly, reducing bottlenecks and improving the flow of vehicles.
The WCR 120 extension is designed to provide a safer route for all road users. With improved road conditions, the extension is designed to reduce accidents and improve safety.
The county is seeking community input for future projects to ensure that development aligns with residents' needs and priorities. Public forums and surveys will be conducted to gather feedback and suggestions for ongoing and upcoming infrastructure initiatives.
