Parker said. Besides making things convenient, greater accessibility to the freeway and major state roads could attract more businesses to the western part of North Utah County, he said. It is important to get the study done now so that both cities are aware of the intersections that need to be planned and the rights-of-wa- y that need to be acquired, he said. And Parker added that the roads may be built sooner than people think, especially with the amount of growth both cities have experienced. Expansion ., to Redwood Road. "Saratoga Springs and Eagle Mountain have a very good working relationship, and we want to make sure that roads and trails systems eventually interconnect throughoth cities this will be the first major road that has," he said. Hillman said the two cities anticipate the road becoming a major collector road to though there is no timeline for when that may happen. Traveling through Main Street in Lehi is nightmarish," he said. This extension will greatly benefit Eagle Mountain and Saratoga residents." Saratoga Springs Mayor Tim Parker said the road extending to the interchange completely depends on development. For example, with the Mt. Saratoga housing development going in just west of Eagle Mountain, Saratoga Springs has made development agreements that require roads to be built, he said. But to get the road built all the way to the interchange, cities throughout the area may need to be willing to collect impact fees for the project, he said.

I will pay for it" SALT LAKE CITY Foltowing criticism from politicians and business leaders, U.S. Customs and Border Protection is pledging to double the number of customs officers here by January. t Air travel advocates in Salt Lake argued that a decision earlier this year to no longer staff international flights arriving at odd hours or on weekends at the Salt Lake International Airport eroded their efforts to woo new international flights to Utah. The agency also said it could no longer respond to incoming private international jets without 72 hours advance notice. Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson MARDI GRAS. JohnLeyden head of customs in San Francisco had led a political charge last month, ask-- , ing customs to reconsider the decisioa Following Anderson's lead, Utah's Congressional delegation had fired off letters to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge looking for help.

John Leyden, head of customs in San Francisco, said the agency will double the number of customs officers in Utah's largest airport by January to 10 and sort them into two shifts. Leyden said the new staffing is not conditional on gaining additional resources from Congress. "It is not contingent on funding," he said. "I will pay for it." Leyden said customs agents might still not be able to service some flights after midnight or before 8 a.m., but they could likely handle most requests. . ASSOCIATED PRESS , ALL.

Hundreds of religious oriented motorcycle groups with names like "House of the Risen Son" and "Born Again Heathens" can be found across the country. Frances "Fireball" Burns and her husband, Rocky, run one such ministry in Denison, Texas. Their group, Soldiers of the Cross, allows members to "take Jesus Christ to the streets," Frances said. "A lot of people dont welcome you," she said. Then they see it's all about your heart, not you or what you're wearing." There are 10 other ministries like Soldiers of the Cross in Denison alone, Frances said, although her's is the only one that specializes in classic cars as well as motorcycles.
