The snow plow is seasonal traffic and not nearly as long or heavy as a million trees. The biggest connecting road has a commercial limit of 2.5 tons.

I have no sympathy for a bunch of retired New Yorkers who wouldn't pony up for some asphalt because it didn't fit the "rustic theme" they envisioned for their state.

Not asking for sympathy asking for money for road usage.

Didn't describe that population at all. EMT, Nurses, college professors, generational farmers, trades people. The main point is why should the town be burdened with the cost. The road satisfies the community needs. Vermont gave up on their side of the road when the commercial roads were developed 3/4 of mile over. The forest service should budget for the impact on the local roads.

Sure sounds like a service economy that feeds upon retirement and tourism money to me....(I know what they look like, I grew up in one)

I don't care exactly who winds up holding the bag but when you drive from literally anywhere bordering Vermont into Vermont it's pretty clear what the level of investment in transportation infrastructure is. And this infighting over how some petty amount of truck traffic is gonna destroy a dirt road is exactly what's downhill of that under-investment.

		Sounds to me like you are blaming service workers for existing in an economy beyond their control, to justify some in anger.
