An e-mail I received from State Senator Con Bunde:

Dear Neighbors:

I want to thank all of you who emailed me with your thoughts and comments regarding driver safety issues on the Seward Highway. If you are interested in listening in, the House Transportation and Judiciary Committees are meeting jointly to discuss Alaska's Highway Safety Corridors. The committees will be hearing from the Department of Public Safety and the Department of Transportation. This meeting will be held next Tuesday, September 1, at 10:30 am and they expect it may last 2-3 hours.

You are welcome to attend the meeting in person here at the Anchorage LIO office at 716 W. 4th Avenue, or you can also call and listen in by dialing 1-888-295-4546. Just ask to be connected to the meeting, and make sure your phone is on mute and/or there is no disruptive noises/radio/TV in the background.

On another note, my office will be unattended (staff vacation) from September 1 through September 10. If you contact me by phone or email during that time, either Jane or I will get back to you as soon as possible after that break.

Thanks so much. Have a good weekend.

Con
