Cascade Chamber Proposes Reservoir Rim North South Highway
The Cascade chamber of commerce launches a statewide protest against the Idaho highway department plan to reroute the North South highway north of Cascade to follow the reservoir rim. President George R. Nock Jr says the ridge route would be snowbound and costs $400 000 more than the lakeshore option, which the chamber promotes. Residents will be urged to write Gov. Robins in support of the rim road.
