City and County Back Bypass Plan for Winchester
The City Council and Frederick County Board of Supervisors both endorsed a bypass around the western side of Winchester. They called for an engineering study and layout, citing Interstate 81, four-lane plans on Route 50 west, and growth driving traffic jams. Merchants offered up to 45000 for a city parking lot project on McCormant Court. Parking restrictions on Boscawen Street and talks on garbage can use were also approved as committees were appointed.
