Bridge Plan Fine but Financing Is Problem
SAN PEDRO Assemblyman Vincent Thomas proposes a bridge from San Pedro to Terminal Island, a needed direct link for two cities, with an engineering report predicting 2,405,000 cars in 1963. Financing is the issue, with two options: borrow 200,000 yearly from Long Beach street funds repaid by tolls, or take 1.5 million from Los Angeles County and the City of Los Angeles. We oppose dipping Long Beach funds and urge funding from logical sources or tidelands revenue, backing conventional financing within the highway system.
