THE BAKER COUNTY PRESS — 11
Local & Entertainment
Public invited to transportation
safety plan meeting
Transportation safety ad-
vocates, local city/county
representatives, concerned
citizens and other interest-
ed parties are encouraged
to attend a public meeting
in La Grande on Jan. 26
regarding the state’s draft
Transportation Safety
Action Plan. The meeting
will be held 2:30 p.m. –
4:30 p.m. at the La Grande
Public Library.
The multi-year effort is
taking the next step toward
completion with a round of
“listening sessions” taking
place throughout the state
this month. The public is
invited to discuss the draft
goals and policies, and
help identify “emphasis
areas,” which are priority
actions to address transpor-
tation safety over the next
fi ve years.
The plan, known as the
TSAP, provides long- and
short-term policy for mak-
ing decisions that address
the core transportation
safety challenges and op-
Bebe’s word search
portunities facing Or-
egon. It also serves as the
federally-required Strate-
gic Highway Safety Plan.
More information about
the TSAP, including
background data, other
meeting locations/dates
and a link for attending an
online open house at www.
oregon.gov/ODOT/TD/TP/
Pages/tsap.aspx. Anyone
interested can also submit
comments to safety@odot.

— Random Acts of Kindness —
Each week The Baker
County Press will in-
clude a list—all anony-
mous, of course—of
the good deeds and
random acts of kind-
ness people from
around the area have
witnessed. To include
something you’ve seen
or experienced, email
News@TheBakerCoun-
tyPress.com with “Ran-
dom Acts of Kindness”
in the subject line.
We’ll be sure to include
your story.
• To the young woman
with the long brown
hair in the post offi ce
parking lot: From a
distance, I watched
you stop and help an
elderly woman who was
moving slowly with a
cane across the ice and
having one hard time
of it. You looked like
you were in a hurry,
but you walked back
anyway and held her
by the arm until she got
in the building. I just
thought it shouldn’t go
unnoticed.
