At last night’s Twentynine Palms City Council meeting, the council voted to award a design contract to KOA Corporation for a safety median on Highway 62, east of Encelia Avenue. Slated for construction later this year, the 850-foot-long raised median will be a safety mechanism that blocks motorists from making risky left turns from the highway in to the parking lot and vice versa. Motorists heading west will be able to access the shopping center by turning left at the stoplight at Encelia Avenue.
