May Amend Frederick Master Plan for Traffic Relief
The Frederick Planning Commission schedules a public hearing Friday May 6 at 7 30 p m to consider amending the Master Plan to include proposed ultimate and interim highway routes around the city. The plan on file by the State Roads Commission is part of a SRC traffic study last year and may be viewed during business hours. Alder man Burall says he will press for immediate action on traffic relief measures as construction and funding involved a mix of city state and federal support.
