Proposed 231 Expansion

[smithchick231]

Hey has anyone heard anything about the proposed 5 lane expansion of route 231? Ive seen a letter from a resident along the corridor that recieved a letter stating something about Chaney Enterprises looking to relocate the Waldorf facility and possibly expand 231 the entire length to 5 lanes at their cost?
Maybe Ive just comepletely missed this on the forums, but this is the first Ive heard of it.
Thoughts?

I'm not sure of the exact distance on Rt. 231, but, I don't think it's the entire length. Chaney Enterprises has requested that a 150 acre parcel, right next to the post office be rezoned to heavy industrial. He is considering moving his gravel washing operation there, however, wants to sell off the majority of the land if his rezoning request goes through...so, who knows what would end up there. In any event, if the request is approved, yes, the talk is that at the entrance by the post office, Rt. 231 right after getting off the bypass exit will be widened to five lanes with a traffic light...
