New members named to Northwest Florida Transportation Corridor Authority

            Governor Rick Scott last week named one new member and re-appointed two others to the Northwest Florida Transportation Corridor Authority.

James Anders of Seacrest Beach and Carey Scott of Panama City were reappointed to the board; Peter Bos of Destin was named to final a vacant spot on the board.

All of the members will serve through August of 2017.

The 8 member Transportation Corridor Authority was created by the legislature in 2005 to develop a master plan for US Highway 98. 

That plan is supposed to focus on reducing congestion, increasing safety, stimulating local economies and providing better hurricane evacuation.

Franklin County’s representative on the board is County Commissioner Cheryl Sanders.
