ALDOT's $800 million U.S. 280 Expansion Project will bypass vital business districts in the western section and create a commercial wasteland in the eastern section where established businesses thrive today. It will devastate real estate values in the historic residential neighborhoods west of I-459 and will harm the residential neighborhoods to the east tomorrow as business and development shift beyond Eagle Point. Tax revenues, property values, air and water quality, transit options, quality of life -- all will be diminished if this massive project is allowed to go forward.

By signing this petition, you are registering your opposition to ALDOT's U.S. 280 Expansion Project. Your submission, along with all those who sign this petition, will be sent to both government and community leaders to raise awareness of the widespread opposition to the proposed expanded roadway. Please use the "Email friends" tab above to let your friends and family know about this important petition.
