<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The high school won't be there much longer.
This is a project that has been needed for a long time. Once again we
shouldn't have let it go so long it is only going to cost more. Face facts.
Moscow is going to grow and getting out here the fastest, shortest way will save
gas and ragged nerves.</FONT></DIV>

bridge</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The City of Moscow seems intent on extending
Third Street over Paradise Creek between Blaine and MountainView. The
result of that bridge construction will be more cars, driving faster, coming
from places like Pullman, all the way up Third to
MountainView.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>While I can understand how that bridge will make
traffic flow better through town, I hate to see increases in both the number
of cars and their speed by the high school, East City Park, and Lena Whitmore
Elementary School. Even worse is the idea of widening Third,
trashing the trees along that route, and sending more traffic through the
Blaine Manor apartments and endangering all the kids who live and play
there.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>How about this compromise? Build a bridge
to connect Third Street but make it wide enough for bikes and foot traffic
only. That would demonstrate that Moscow is serious about non-motorized
access and provide a great link between downtown and the eastern
part of Moscow.</FONT></DIV>
