Urge Building Of The Parkway Between Afton And Peaks

Lynchburg Virginia August 13 Immediate construction of the Blue Ridge Parkway between Afton and the Peaks of Otter will be urged by Robert D Ramsey business manager of the Lynchburg Chamber of Commerce in letters to Senators Glass and Byrd. He notes the mountain crest route would bring the road closer to Lynchburg and Ap pomattox Battlefield Park. The route starts at Skyline Drive southern terminus and crosses the river between Snowden and Big Island on a new bridge then extends to the Peaks of Otter. Ramsey hopes work begins this year though surveys may not be complete. The highway would eventually link Shenandoah Park Virginia with Great Smoky Park North Carolina.
