speed Traffic literally in the blind, with
vision obScured by trees, shoulders, and
elevations in the road Added to all this
is the wild confusion of traffic at the
EaStgate Shopping Center, which SERVES
as the favorite route OF tOwn-bound To-
cal traffic in the absence Of a cIoVer-leaf
at the Boulevard intersection.
To say that this is the result of fan
tastically poor planning might be ac-
curate. but itEsolves nothing now The
Bypass is there and some practical way
must be found to eliminate this death
trap.
The Highway Department. already has
begun work on a service road along a
stretch of the Bypass from Bolin Creek
to a point just short of the overpass.
This will be of SOME small help. but much
more is needed.
Without seeming to pose as experts
on such matters, we would also suggest
that the speed limit be reduced at least
to As miles an hour along the Bypass,
with limits of 25 miles an hour in con-
gested areas. To some extent this
negates the purpose of a bypass, but
we think the interests of safety should
take precedence over the interests of
speed.
Consideration should also be given to
extending a service road along the en-
tire bvpa IS, with access a great deal
more limited than it is now.

Now It's Tragica1ly Clear: Something
Must Be Done To Improve The Bypass

One of the saddeSt comments on high
way safety in North Carolina, or the
lack of safety. is that tragedy apparent

made. ~
Last spring two University students
were killed where the Durham Boulevard
overpasses the l5-501 Bypass Excessive
speed was one of the major causes of
that accident But a poorly marked in

the deaths prompted the State HignWay
Department to make improvements.

bypass with 55 mile speed linn
its and i5 access roads leading
to fairly well populated residen-
tial areas. These are exclusive
Of the intersection 4near the
Glen Lennox Stopping Center
which itself stands alone as a
glaring traffic hazard.
Car drivers who are residents
of Chapel Hill are aware Of the
fact that cars must make lett
turns across thru traffic at any
one of these. access or crossroads.
Even then the bumper to bum
per congestion is frightening
many times. Out-of-tOWn tourists
using the bypass have every
right to expect it tl be just that,
a by pass with posted speed of 55
miles to help them skirt the
business and populated areas.
There are only two signs warn
ing Of a school crossing but na-
where are speed limits reduced
in recognition Of the many cars
which have to slow or come TO.
stop in order to turn off the
highway, into residential areas.
There are no adequate SHOULDERS
so that car drivers could pull
over to the right and wait to
make q safe turn.
