Rt 522 Project Nears Open with Dual Lane Upgrade
The Rt 522 project from beyond city limits to near Gainesboro spans about 7.25 miles with a planned Sept 1 1966 opening for the second phase. Phase one began July 7 1964 under McAllister Construction Co for 1 360 000 dollars and phase two by Echols Bros Inc for 737 000 dollars. The work adds a new lane while retaining one way traffic where possible and will join the interstate arterial network.
