Engineer Construction of Freeway links In East Juab County will be completed from North Nephi to the present freeway end at Santaquin by late in 1973 according to a letter received recently by Juab County Commissioner Alton S. Gadd from Blaine J. Kay, State Highway En- -' gineer. The matter of freeway construction timing was discussed by the Juab County Commissioners with Governor Calvin L, Rampton during the Governors recent visit to East Juab County. For the information of the public, the letter follows, in part: Governor Rampton asked that I report to you on the schedule for construction of between Santaquin and Nephi. The plans for this most important and badly needed section of interstate y highway are now complete, and is being appraised for purchase. The construction work will be let in two contracts, the first from the end of the presently completed highway at Santaquin southerly to the south end of the Steele Ranch. This work is now scheduled for advertising early in 1972. The second construction project will extend from the end of the first project to a connection with the existing highway just north of Nephi. This work is now scheduled for advertising between April and June of 1972. Both projects should be completed late in 1973. As you know, route studies are still being made for through the Nephi area and southerly to Chicken Creek. The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 and regulations issued by The Federal Highway Administration now require a comprehensive environmental impact study to be made of all alternate routes for each highway project. We are negotiating with a consulting firm to make these studies for through Nephi and southerly to Chicken Creek. These studies will supplement those already made by the Highway Department and will furnish the basis for a recommended route which will be presented at a public hearing. We are hopeful this hearing can be held early in 1972. The consultant will be initiating studies In the near future. Land use studies will be made, and the economic, social and community value effects of alternate highway construction plans will be evaluated along with highway engineering considerations. The consultant will be contacting local officials and community leaders to determine their views. We are most anxous to get a route which will best meet the needs of the State as a whole, and which also gives recognition to local conditions. "We appreciate the spirit of cooperation we have enjoyed with you and the people of Nephi and Juab County. We look forward to more of the same in right-of-wa- Tl man-caus- Construction Dales Told Forester, U. S.
