He says delaying the eastern reach harms South Lorain residents, especially for emergency access to the west campus hospital.

Officials back 2nd school entrance
Avon officials including the mayor back a second entrance for the new 12.9 million high school to be built south of Detroit Road and west of Stoney Ridge. The plan adds a teachers parking entrance on Hunters Trail and keeps buses using both entrances, while Hunters Trail residents push for one entrance to curb traffic. Council members stress the street is a designed collector and support traffic relief, with Planning Commission to decide after further review.
