We deserve a major four-lane highway from Kittanning to Indiana no matter what it may cost, what can we do to make that happen?

Why are you wasting money on improving Route 422? There are other improvements more important needed elsewhere.

When will you start construction and where?

When will you buy my property?

Will my driveway be connected to the new roadway?

Are you going to widen the existing roadway or are you going to move it somewhere else?

Will the Norfolk Southern Railroad line near Shelocta impact this project?

What will happen if your project impacts my water well or septic system?

Will this project include things like walking/biking trails?

We may have a problem supporting this project. Yes it’s needed but we have other higher priorities in our county.

You are studying Route 422 again, when are you going to do something?

There are lots of trucks on this highway and they travel very fast, will the construction of this project increase the number and/or speed of future truck traffic?

Will the expansion of Route 422 create more jobs in Armstrong and Indiana Counties?

Will the new road have a median barrier and can I get to my property?

Will the new road by-pass Elderton?

This is a waste of my time, we need a major four-lane highway on Route 422, but we are not going to get it because it costs too much.

Why study Route 422 again and waste all that money, why don't you just extend the Kittanning Bypass and the Indiana Bypass until they meet?
