NAFTA Super Super Highway from Mexico through Duluth an urban myth
91.3 KUWS (WI) : June 21 , 2006 -- by Danielle Kaeding


An article on plans for a four-football field wide Super Highway from Mexico to Canada. Danielle Kaeding has the story on the internet rumor.

Minnesota Department of Transportation's John Bray says he's heard all about the internet article boasting the Bush Administration's plans to build a Super Highway from Mexico to Canada.

"Whoever wrote it, I think I would recommend that they take a couple aspirins, lay down, take a snooze, and get up and write something that has some credibility to it. This thing has no credibility at least as far as our agency is concerned."

A non-profit organization called North America SuperCorridor Coalition, Inc. or NASCO is mentioned in the article. The group is supposedly working with the Administration on plans for the Super Highway. But NASCO Director Tiffany Melvin says there must be some sort of misunderstanding.

"We're not working with the administration to create a new highway or anything like that. We're an advocacy group [that] tries to bring attention to the need for improvements and maintenance to the existing infrastructure and to increase security at our nation's borders and improve safety measures along the corridor."

Bray says there's no money to go toward a construction project of this magnitude.

"The agency right now is in a funding crisis for gosh sake. I mean, we're doing the best we can just to hold the highways together in Minnesota. Wisconsin's in the same boat."

So, no worries folks...nothing running through your backyards just yet.
