BELTWAY IS A KEY PIECE

Editorial in Winston-Salem Journal emphasizes the importance of the beltway to Forsyth County.  It will bring business - new companies which equals to new jobs.  Right now with our area losing jobs and businesses and with the decline in the economy, that should be important to all residents.  There are many that have lost their jobs and looking to start a new business.  They are asking, should I stay in Forsyth County or go to another area where there is more growth?  Of course, we know many businesses are attracted to certain areas because of the transportation system.   Is Winston-Salem/Forsyth County going to be that area or let it all go down the road (I-40) to Greensboro, Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham?  Our local leaders and State Rep's and Senators need to take note right now, that we are looking to them for a stronger economy for our city/county.  Are you going to help the citizens of Forsyth?  WE NEEDED THIS BELTWAY TEN YEARS AGO!  LET'S NOT LET ANOTHER YEAR GO BY THAT THIS ISN'T A PRIORITY FOR ALL OF US.
