New Signal Lights Set for Bay Bridge Toll Plaza
A new traffic signal system will be installed over the Sar Francisco Oakland Bay Bridge toll plaza to speed morning traffic. Westbound lanes will be metered at the tolls for about a half hour. The system uses four mini computers and sensors to regulate traffic, with green signals on weekends and holidays and during weekday off-peak times. During peak morning flow red signals will appear to limit cars to the bridge's capacity, while priority lanes for buses and emergency vehicles remain green.

Federal transit program would aid Bay Area agencies
The proposed federal mass transit program would consolidate two aid streams and lift urban funding to 2.7 billion dollars annually by 1978, with local agencies such as AC Transit and BART choosing to use the money for operations or fleet purchases. Officials say Congress must approve, and the plan aims to expand urban transit while addressing the energy crisis and shifting transportation needs.

Nixon to aid impeach study amid committee push
Two Republican leaders, after meeting with Nixon, said he would cooperate with the House Judiciary Committee as it seeks impeachment grounds and seeks all relevant information. The panel passed a resolution granting it broad subpoena power to demand materials from the White House, while promising reasonable, relevant requests and restraint unlike the Watergate panel. Meanwhile Cub Scout events and local notes appear in Fremont.
