After several years of planning and negotiations, word has been received that plans and specifications for a new road into Yuba State Park have been approved, and that bids for its construction will be opened on October 2. The new road will be 28 feet wide, paved traffic consisting of two lanes and two two-fopaved shoulders. The entrance into the park will be north of the approximately a half-mil- e present location, and will be wider and more attractive than the present one. The new road will be built to meet Standards, with Federal 75 per cent of the cost coming from the County Collector road fund. No property tax money will be spent on this project. The necessity of meeting new Federal requirements has delayed this project for nearly one year. We know of nothing that the County or the engineering firm of Rollins, Brown and Gunnell could have done to expedite the work. We apologize for the condition the road has been in this season, and hope that by this time next year you will have been traveling on a new road and forgotten your inconvenience.
