Show MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMfc J State Road ! j Needs Repair f What Are We Going j I To Do About It? i t J Plans for the widening and resurfacing of the state highway J J from the bank corner west to the intersection were recenrlyl . completed by Neldon W. Lim, a member of the state road X commission's engineering force, and was submitted to the district j office and later sent into the state office at Salt Lake City. Since that time there evidently has been no action taken on the matter. I The estimated cost of the project was $4,000, which included J widening of the paved street three feet on each side, improving ? the grade and resurfacing of the entire section. J According to general practices of political groups, such fas J the state highway commission, improvements are made on high- J ways where political pressure is brought by civic groups and' ? ? city officials, and with that thought in mind it seems quite J j necessary at this time that the civic groups and city officials of y J Pleasant Grove should meet with the state road commission and J J demand that this section of the state highway system be brought J J up to a higher standard. T J The approach to Pleasant Grove from the west is one of J the worst sections of state highway on the entire hard-surfaced J I system, and should be improved this year. With proper political J J pressure and the proper cooperation from all groups in this j i community, the state highway commission no doubt will see fit j J to make this much needed improvement. J |
