Nebraska plan to lure tourists includes lake roadways
OGALLALA Neb Mel Steen head of Nebraska Game Forestation and Parks outlines a bold program to draw tourists by building a chain of fifty crystal clear lakes along the Platte River Valley tied to road construction. He envisions using highway fill to create water bodies with islands and beaches at interchanges to attract anglers boaters and swimmers statewide. The plan aims to double the current waterworks with 26 lakes nine recreation areas and 76 miles of canal plus a .3 mill levy funding about $1 million yearly for state parks. Steen points to $25 billion in annual travel spending and hopes to capture a larger share by redirecting westbound routes from Route 66. Colorado authorities are asked to consider joining in the effort.
