Alternate Freeway Plan in Centerville Faces Proceedings
Centerville chamber of commerce continued pursuit of an alternate freeway route between Thornton and Alder avenues. The branch road would cut through orchards and vacant land, impacting several private homes, as state officials cited a six lane highway plan. The chamber, led by Lowle Cardoza, aims to present the proposal to county planning, county supervisors, and the state highway division. In steel news, Bethlehem Steel and United Steelworkers met with government aides but failed to resolve wage and contract disputes amid ongoing 44 day walkout and anticipated private talks with Sterlman.
