Live right off 281 and you can not make this highway side enough. The speed needs to be lowered, I know that is just not possible, but there are just too many homes,business, and intersections for it not to be maybe 55. Because if it is 55 they’ll still run 65-70

There have been far too many accidents on both hwy 281 north and south, and far too many deaths. Speed, distraction, etc, have contributed to the accidents. The amount of traffic traveling 281 has increased, along with the speed. Please listen to the pleas of those that travel it (myself and my family included) and consider widening it and adding turn lanes/passing lanes.

When I was young, the water lady Avis died on this hwy. My uncle died on Christmas day 2018, head on, in his own lane. And the neighbor kid was also in a head on collison,in his own lane and is lucky to be alive. Stretch between Perrin and Mineral Wells.

If Highway 281 was wider and had a center median I would not have been involved in the motorcycle accident that I was in.

I grew up in Morgan Mill so I know it's been a very dangerous stretch of highway as long as I can remember and I'm 60 years old.
