Commissioners are considering a plan to rehabilitate Dawson Forest Road. Dawson County Planning Director David McKee said major repair work is needed from Hwy. 53 west to the entrance of the Dawson Forest Wildlife Management Area. Originally constructed in the 1950s as an entryway to the Lockheed plant, the six mile road has a 42-45 percent base failure, which McKee poses is a safety hazard.
