Gordon Road Change Seeks Out of Court Settlement via Highway Commission

The Cass County dispute over Gordon Road may be settled out of court with state highway commission involvement. A proposed realignment would shift State Road 7 to avoid the Burley Hollow curve, starting east of Burnettsville and routing via Stuart Road, Gordon Road, Casparis quarries, and the Tarvia Road railroad subway west of Logansport. The plan, considering short turns and hills, offers little improvement over the existing Burley Hollow route.
