Letter from the Chair of Elkinsville Ecological Society Many of you have heard about the proposed northward expansion of the interstate, which currently ends just south of Elkinsville, in the recent debate over how this work will go forward, the focus has been on weighing economic costs and benefits. Indeed, many local politicians claim to favor the project because it will bring jobs in the short term and more visitors to Elkinsville in the long term. These politicians also argue that the proposed plan is the least environmentally damaging way to expand the highway farther upstate.
