Parkway debate grows as city eyes path of Eastern Parkway
City officials weigh options for a $14.7 million Eastern Parkway linking Kansas Highway 19 to downtown Lawrence. Mayor Moody favors a eastern bridge to protect East Lawrence, while others demand staff specifics and funding. Planning Commission hearing set for Sept. 27 and an environmental impact statement is awaited this fall. Concerns mount over financing and link to the South Lawrence Trafficway, with Nalbandian questioning whether to pursue the Parkway now.
