CityHeads
Ask State s
TraWcAid

After meeting with Governor
Theodore R. McKeldin and State
Roads Commission officials in
Baltimore Tuesday, Rockville
Mayor Dickran Y. Hovsepian is
optimistic that the SRC will CO.
operate in relieving the towns
traffic problems.
Specifically Mayor Hovsepian
and City Manager John Mark
land visited the State officials to
protest the plan for opening the
new National Pike as far as Rock
ville's Montgomery Avenue and
to-ask for speed in widening the
Rockville Pike between the town
and Bethesda. The mayor feels
that the State is ready to CO.
operate on both problems.
In a prepared statement issued
after his Baltimore trip, the
mayor said, "The governor and
the State Roads Commission
have agreed that the problem of
traffic flow through Rockville.
which would result from opening
the new National Pike as far as
the Route % interchange, re-
quires further study and nego-
tiation."
The million-dollar-a-mile dual
highway is open as far as Ger
mantown now. From there the
traffic is diverted on Route 119
to old Route 240 and flows around
Rockville via the bypass.
Mayor Hovsepian says that if
the SRC goes through with its
plan to open three more sections
of the pike as far as Rockville
"by early spring, 1000 addition
al cars a day would flow through
the main street of the town.
Montgomery County Police
Superintendent James s. McAu-
life has said the traffic problem
resulting from the opening of
the pike into Rockville could
mean no parking on Montgom,
cry Avenue. The mayor says the
effect would be hard on town
merchants.
An alternate plan, to open the
pike only as far as the Shady
Grove interchange below Cal
thersburg, then divert the traffic
back to old Route 240, has been
largely discounted because Shady
Grove Road is only 16 feet wide.
Reporting further on his Tues
day talks, the mayor said, at
was recognized that the recent
discussion between the County
Council and the city of Rock
vile resulting in an agreement
to give top priority to the i'm
provement of MontroSe Road in
order to provide a connection TO
present Route 240 and relieve
congestion in Rockville. throws
new light on the matter"
Last week Mr.. Hovsepian told
the County Council that the SRC
might build the pike as far as
Grosvenor Lane before opening it
past Rockville because Montrose
was not improved enough to
