GREEN RIVER Members of the community gathered at the Sweetwater County Library Wednesday evening to discuss the possibility of an alternate road that locals would be able to travel between Green River and Rock Springs.
On May 4, Representative Mark Baker, R-Green River, began discussions with the community regarding the alternate road, addressing both the Sweetwater County Commission and the Green River City Council.
Baker’s goal is to find federal funding, with the backing of the Wyoming Department of Transportation, through the American Jobs Plan. The American Jobs Plan is President Joe Biden’s infrastructure proposal to invest $2 trillion in U.S. infrastructure over the next eight years.
