By 'Color Coding' ) Plan to Solve Problem Of North Bank Traffic A plan for solving the traffic problems which will present them selves when the North Bank sta dium is constructed was set forth Tuesday afternoon by a special liaison committee. The proposal is to divide the 9.000 car parking lot into seven sections, each section having a certain color which would indi cate the direction the cars ought to take. Eugene traffic, for example, would use the "green zone," a western segment of the parking lot. Traffic using this zone would proceed westerly on Centennial Blvd., loop under the Ferry Street Bridge onto Coburg Road and head into Eugene’s downtown area. Orange Red Zone The "orange zone" would be designated for Portland and north bound traffic, located in the north east segment of the parking lot. Traffic in this zone would go easterly on Centennial, north on Garden Day to Harlow Road, westerly on Harlow to CoDurg Road, then northerly to the Co burg interchange to reach Inter state 5. Springfield traffic would pri marily use the “red zone" which will be situated in the southeast section of the parking lot. Traffic for this area would flow easterly on oafe lane of Centennial Boule vard into Springfield. The Technical Advisory Com mittee (TAC), a group which has helped to resolve access problems for the new stadium, developed the color code. Road Improvements It is estimated that it will be possible to clear a crowd of 40,000 from the parking area in 90 min-! utes by using the color code plan coupled with certain road im provements on the North Bank, TAC reported Tuesday.

There would be no advantages in building new interchanges to reroute stadium traffic into Q street or the Pacific Freeway, TAC's report said. Recommended road improve ments by TAC follow: • Widening Centennial Blvd. to four lanes from a point just east of Coburg Hoad to a point just west of Interstate 5. • Widening Garden Way to the equivalent of three lanes from Centennial to Harlow Road. • Widening the connections from Centennial to Coburg Hoad to the equivalent of three lanes.
