Officials .Meet State road officials say it is impossible to add an interchange at 1700 South Street, but they have agreed to meet with representatives regarding possibilities of frontage roads to decrease any safety hazard. Mayor Hodge said a meeting between city officials and the board of education would deal with the plan of building frontage roads.
