Corps Gives Sandpoint Bypass Final OK

Item: Army Corps OKs Sandpoint bypass: Opponents vow to 'derail project'/Nicholas K. Geranios, Associated Press

More Info: A controversial highway project along the shore of Lake Pend Oreille to route high-speed traffic away from downtown Sandpoint won final approval from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers this week. The corps issued a final permit Wednesday that will allow the Idaho Transportation Department to begin work on the Sand Creek Byway project, which has been in the works since the 1950s.

Question: What's your reaction to those who say now that they're still going to stop this project?
