A Road to Cool

Road improvements will help expand and create more local jobs, thanks in part to Lottery dollars.

A short and not particularly busy road may not seem like a worthwhile improvement project to many of us, but to family owned SnoTemp, a 60-year-old Oregon company based in Albany, it’s a big deal. A grant of $1.9 million was recently awarded to upgrade Lochner Road, improving access to SnoTemp’s cold food storage and transportation facility.
