I was unaware of the 15-year deal to restrict truck traffic and speed on the Legacy Highway in Davis County until I read The Tribune article of Dec. 10.
I use the highway frequently. It is a beautiful 15 minutes of somewhat worry-free driving, away from the snarl, congestion and high speeds of I-15, I-215 and I-80. I think that this peaceful parkway should be managed as is.
Changing the rules to allow trucks would accelerate need for road repairs and add unnecessary congestion. Adding the convenience for ease of access to industrial areas for trucks is of questionable value, as there are numerous exits, from I-15 and I-215 at Redwood Road, that only change the driving time by three to five minutes.
