Underpass clearance dispute slows North Fillmore aid
Ross Sterling once chaired the State Highway Commission and promised state aid for the North Fillmore Street underpass. State and federal engineers demand a 15 foot clearance, oppose the proposed 10 1 2 feet, and threaten to block aid unless grades are deepened or approaches extended. City officials argue a modest grade increase suffices and warn expanded approaches would hurt properties and costs. The issue centers on whether a higher grade can be waived to advance the all important underpass project.
