Show Simoson Link Promised Early Start An early start on the Simpson Ave. road link between Highland Dr. and 9th East appeared virtually virtu-ally assured last week. No protests were heard at a Salt Lake City commission hearing hear-ing last week. The hearing was on a petition of the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad for vacating city-owned land in the rrea between 2nd and 9th South and Cth and 6th west. Approval of the petition would e'eer the way for an exchange cf city land for railroad property on Simpson Ave. Sugar House businessmen have been pressing for the badly-needed artery for some time to alleviate traffic congestion. The new link will provide autos in the Sugar House business district dis-trict with more maneuverability. Autos heading south from 21st South are forced to travel to 27th South before a turnaround can be made. |
