Decision on
T raff ic, Plan
Is Expected
A decision regarding the .ex
perimental one-way traffic sys
tem on Shortlidge road is - ex
pected to be made today by the
department of physical plant.
The trial, ,w hi c h established
one-way traffic north on that
road between 6 p.m. and 2 a.m.,
was in effect Wednesday, Friday
and Saturday nights.
The student committee which
suggested the plan to the College
is to meet this afternoon with
Walter Wiegand, director of phy
sical plant, to discuss the experi
ment.
The committee is composed of
Harry Cover, Marvin Krasnan
sky and Mary Jane Woodrow.
The plan was successful in
eliminating the 1 a.m. traffic tie
up on both Friday and Saturday
nights. It was necessary, how
ever, .for the campus patrol to
station a patrolman at the Pol
lock road intersection to prevent
traffic from bucking the one way
system.
When the last major tieup oc
curred two weeks ago there were
no campus patrolmen on duty
along Shortlidge road. 1
On the weekend of the Villa
nova football game campus patrol
placed a number of patrolmen on
Shortlidge road to enforce the
parking regulations. This experi
ment also was successful in elim
inating a traffic jam. Traffic was
not at its peak, however, on that
weekend since a large percentage
of the student body was off cam
pus.
There is 294 square miles of
water surface in Pennsylvania.
