Adding lanes, Diamondhead noise wall are a waste

The study to add two lanes on I-10 from Diamondhead to the Wolf River and build a noise-buffering wall along Diamondhead property, is cause for concern.

The only possible reason I can think of for doing so, is to make it easier for the casino people to argue that they will not make an impact on our community. Even though it has been ruled an illegal site, we all know that can be changed.

This is a huge waste of everyone’s money for something that is not needed.
