Michael Copeland, Olathe Mayor:

"Transportation investments in our community will be repaid many times over and the Department of Transportation has partnered with us on other projects: three interchanges in this community. And those projects have resulted in thousands of high paying jobs for Kansans and I can give you the data on that. We have new jobs coming to this community that would otherwise not even be in this area because of the accessibility because of the enhancements we've made to the infrastructure in our area."
