Coalition to pursue "butterfly highway" designation for Missouri 13 [View all]

LEXINGTON – The Missouri Highway 13 Corridor Coalition is considering a proposal to develop Missouri Highway 13 as a butterfly trail.

A delegation from Caldwell County ”planted the idea” at the coalition’s meeting on Monday, April 8, noting the corridor is a natural migration path for monarch and other butterflies, Coalition Chairman Bill Bernier said.

Bud Motsinger, Caldwell County presiding commissioner, said Interstate 35 has already been designated the Monarch Highway in states from Minnesota to Mexico, with a 50-mile radius on each side of the road included.

“We’re within that 50-mile boundary,” Motsinger said.
