Redwood Highway Widening Eyed Cave Junction (Special) State Highway department en gineers met with city planners here Wednesday afternoon to .make further plans for wide ning and improving that part of the Redwood highway which serves as Cave Junction's Main st. F. D. Morgan, Hbseburg, di- vision engineer for the State Highway department presented map showing an 80-foot curb- to-curb roadway, with provis ions for a 16-foot median, or divider, two 12-foot lanes on either side and eight-foot park ing strips. He said a map with 100-foot curb-to-curb specifica tions had been discarded by the department several years ago, and added that if the city wants a wider Main St., the highway commission should be contacted. The 100-foot highway would mean condemnation of several properties. Although no appropriations have been made, the engineers said Main street improvement work would be in addition to a project already approved lor a 100-foot Redwood highway right of vfty from Cave Junction north to Hayes hill. The state, he said, wouid pay for all Main st. work in the city, and would put in curbs, but sidewalk con struction would be the respon sibility of poperty owners. W. J. Noyer, district man ager of the California-Oregon Power company, presented a plan for removing power poles from Mai st. to the alley. He suggested that street lighting come from standards erected in the center island of the proposed new roadway. Financing would be arranged through monthly payments to COPCO by the city.
