Of Highways
To Link City

A program OF llmited-access hign
speed highways radiating through
Detroit and extending outstate de.
signed to unlock the city's traffic
deadlocks, was offered today to
the Common Council by G.. Donald
Kennedy, state highway commits
sioner.
The plan would cover $50 miles
of roadway at a cost of approx
mately $30OOOO,0O0 and would
link Detroit by superhighway with
Chicago and Toledo, as well as
establishing crosstown highways Of
three types to service the indus
trial areas and serve as military
roads.
The roads would be elevated.
depressed, surface or a combina-
ton of the three, depending upon
the needs of the locality being
served, Kennedy said.
MAJOR IMPORTANCE
I'm not here to discuss the
technical phases of the desirable
lily Of one route rs compared to
another" the commissioner ex-
planned.
"It Il of major importance for
us to know how much money In
available so we can know what
we want and can d." said
Mayor Jeffries. who attended the
meeting. 81 personally believe
we haven't been getting our
share of funds from the high
way department"
Kennedy promised that his de-
partment intended to devote "all
the resources we can to the devel-
opment of the Detroit program"
Representatives of the highway
department. the Wayne County
road commission and the mayors
ALLEGATION committee, met this aft
ernoon to discuss Kennedy's plan.
The group will report back to
council next week.
10 MILES LONG
Commissioner Kenne dy said
work should begin as soon as pos
sible on the crosstown highway

route because of its defense value.
/ This express highway would be
19 miles long, running from South
field road in Allen Park eaststo
Morang drive. OF this stretch, nine
miles would be on the surface,
seven miles elevated and three
miles depressed. It's route rIlns
through the heart of the industrial
districts and would serve ma
jority of the city's factories as well
as relieve the north arm of Grand
boulevard. which Kennedy Dr.
clared is one of the most over
burdened stretches in the city,.
The Harper-McGraw-Stanley ex-
press highway would be extended
under the plan to Chicago with a
cutoff to Toledo, thus tieing in
further with the aims of the ma
tional defense planning.
The pressing problem of Grand
River avenue, long one of the
, sorest spots in the citys traffic
system. would be solved by an all
elevated route parallel to Grand
! River and running from the LOOP
to Pennington.
