COUNCIL GETT8MG ACTION
By Charles
PROGRESS is reported by
and Walter S. Fisher in the matter of connecting Second
Avenue South, in Koseburjr, to the Pacific highway. To
date, however, no arrangement has been made with the
state highway department
which would permit future widening and permanent improvement.
The two councilmen recently weiit to Portland where they
contacted federal agencies, charged with building access
roads, and have secured promise of a survey of the Roseburg
project. No commitments,
no work will be undertaken until the city provides the re
quired application forms, maps and supporting data.
Second Avenue South is the street paralleling Deer creek.
It is rapidly developing into
with traffic congestion already critical and scheduled to
grow increasingly more serious. One company alone is
planning to put a fleet of 50
coming summer, which will
route, travelling empty one
west. Opening of the Young's Bay Lumber company mill
will add several hundred trucks and private cars daily. All
this will be new traffic and already the street is so crowded
it has been necessary to impose
There is every indication
in the next few months to machinery sales, service and re
pair agencies and other businesses connected with the mill
and timber industries. Such condition naturally will add
greatly to the traffic congestion. Altogether, the prospect i
is for considerably more use
to carry.
There is opportunity, right
' which will permit the street to
luture ditto. But if procrastination, red-tape, passing-the
oticK, ana general neglect are
picture, the taxpayers are going to suffer when necessity
forces an improvement program.
The federal government maintains a fund to aid in con
struction of roads principally used for access to materials
used in the war effort. The project for connecting Second
Avenue clearly comes within the scope of the federal-aid
program. Access money amounting to more than $80,000
has been spent in developing a road up Little River to per
mit of removal of timber from that area. Yet the trucks
hauling those loads must be funnelled into the bottleneck
at the intersection with Jackson street in Roseburg, trucks
must be moved over the city's business thoroughfares. Such
movement of traffic already has resulted in numerous minor
accidents and property destruction. The cost of the im
provement would soon be paid for in saving on tires and
equipment, without considering the improved traffic condi
tions which would result from the proposed direct con
nection. ) . t
But, in the event access money is secured lo help in build
ing Second Avenue through to the highway, the plan
should bo made to fit into a scheme for future street widen
ing. The route is a part of the North IJmpqua road system,
which eventually must be a state highway. Therefore, any
work now done should be correlated with plans for standard
highway construction.
We consider it to la; the duty of the state highway de
partment to adopt and furnish, williuut further Wt, a defi
nite plan for eventual improvement. With such data avail
able, it would be possible for
restrictions on construction ot

Bore all my sins upon the tree;
The Son of God for me hath

My Lord, my Love is crucified.

Ye all are bought with Jesus

Pardon for all flows from His
