Update: Going to the Sun Road

An update to my recent POST about the Going to the Sun Road: It looks as though some of Montana’s newspaper editorial boards feel as I do that Montana’s contractors are getting the very short end of the stick on this deal:

Billings Gazette: Ups and Downs gives a quick take on news of the week.
DOWN: Going out of state.

It’s good paying jobs that we’re losing. We should be a little outraged and I’m glad a couple of newspapers have noticed. Maybe someone in power will take a closer look at the bid requests and the criteria. Ya never know what you may find…
