Opposes Widening
The conservation district also
recommended against widening
Route 30 East from the vicinity
of the police barracks to Hart
man Bridge Road (Route 896)
A major justification for the
widened highway has been that
it will help eliminate accidents
But according to the conserva
tionists, the accidents are caused
by “inattentive dnvers looking
elsewhere than the road ” To add
lanes for this purpose will be a
“waste of funds,” according to
the district
The district stated, “Even
when the new relocated Route
30 is built the widened i oad will
not be necessary, because of the
elimination of through traffic
The widened road would then be
an unnecessarily large main
tenance pioblem, it was indi
cated
The district stated, “even
though this goes against our
feeling about prime agricultural
land, we feel this money should
be spent relocating Route 30
toward the Mine Ridge aiea
Once the through traffic is re
moved from this aiea, the pres
ent road will be more than ade
