Not those voicing about the merits of approving the highway, about endangered species, development or concern about recreation open spaces. But I will continue capturing those voices as well.

Not looking for political leaders or activists, but local residents.

This is strictly about the commute. Does an expansion of the existing Red Hills Parkway, if possible, suffice? Or is a road through the Red Cliffs resort something you think will help the commute?

For those in the St. George 435 area:
I’m looking to give people here a voice to viewers throughout Utah and beyond on making the commute in β€œSt. Geezy” and whether the proposed Northern Corridor will help … or not.

Another environmental group, Southern Utah Climbers Alliance, has been in opposition. While not fans of the new highway, the deal includes at least a temporary protection for Moe's Valley to the southwest that is also a tortoise habit and also the only home on the planet to the Bear Claw Poppy.

There are seven plaintiffs in the lawsuit that - like a similar lawsuit after the first approval in early 2021 - claims the approval by the BLM was illegal. Joining Conserve Southweat Utah is the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance and The Wilderness Society. #stgeorge #utpol #environment

The highway through an area that includes habitat for the endangered desert tortoise was initially approved by the first Trump Administration, reversed by President Biden, then recently reapproved by the second Trump Administration. #stgeorge #utpol #environment

The expected lawsuit has arrived from conservation groups trying to stop the latest government approval of a four-lane highway in the Red Cliffs National Conservation area between Ivins/St. George and Washington City. More on @fox13now later. #stgeorge #utpol #environment

Will boosting high-quality Utah construction jobs ease the cost of living? Utah legislators are trying to hammer their way through ways to decrease the cost of living in the state. One of the options might come through construction workers in hard hats and vests.

Are construction jobs key to ease cost of living in southwest Utah?

Are add-on costs for foreign visitors hurting Utah's national parks? Things are different for foreign tourists visiting our national lands this year as higher fees target those coming from outside the country.

I asked viral international van life vloggers Philly & Keely what changes in U.S. national park fees for foreign nationals have meant to them. The answer may surprise you.
