Highway officials hint of ultimatum in Elyria Amherst route
County officials met with state highway leaders in Columbus to discuss building the eastern half of a proposed 10 million dollar superhighway from Rt. 57 in Elyria to Rt. 58 at Amherst. Western half delayed by Amherst City's refusal to consent to construction through the city, with state officials hoping for consent and timing dependent on funds. Additional work on Rt. 74 and Rt. 37 to Baumhart Rd. may wait for funds or reallocation, and Lake Ave. widening hinges on determining an intersection with Rs. 254. Attending officials include state highway director P. E. Masheter and others, plus Lorain County leaders Pitchard McGinnis and Donald E. Patterson.
