4-Oroûo Weekly Times, Wednesday, September 20th, 1978 Clapping in rhythm Transportation needs telephone 'poll Information will be collect- ed from Durham households through telephone interviews and will be used to determine future transportation needs which would guide the dev- elopment of transportation facilities and services in the Region. With the information obtained from this survey, transportation planners will be able to estimate the need for transportation facilities which will be required for new residential, industrial, and commercial development within the Region. For ex- ample, the information from the survey would assist in determining road access req- uirements to new industrial areas in the Region, analy- zing the transportation req- uirements for downtown and shopping areas and planning of GO Transit services. The survey procedure will be to interview members of selected households within the Region to determine when, where and how often people travel. These house- holds will be notified by mail approximately one week Traffic signals will be required Even the younger set were pleased with the Billy Meek show at the recent Orono Fair and were right on time with the rhythm provided by the musicians on stage. Durham County holstein show A large crowd was on hand to witness the fine quality show sponsored by the Dur- ham breeders at the Orono Fair, September 7, 1978. Judge Bertram Stewart, Hornby did his usual compet- ent job and praised 16 exhibitors for their fine pre- sentation of 98 animals. The recipient of both the Premier Breeder and Pre. mier Exhibitor awards was A. Muir and Sons, Bowman- ville. Their entries were particularly strong in the Senior classes taking Grand and Reserve Grand Champ- ion and Best Udder. In addition Muir took home the Grand Champion Male Ros- ette on his first prize Yearling Bull (1), Elderslie Rocky. Reserve Champion was a bull calf (5) sired by a Birch Hollow Royalty shown by Frank Barkey, Blackstock. The first prize Senior Year- ling and Junior Champion Female, a 4-H entry in 1977 for Bruce Snowden, Enniskil- len was tall, strong and good, standing on clean, desirable legs. This daughter of Moore- ville Rocket Kemp placed over the tall, sharp, deep ribbed Junior Yearling and Reserve Junior Champion shown by Frank Barkey. Barkey also exhibited the first prize 'Ned' Junior Calf and two-year-old. Grand and Reserve were a pair of good uddered stable mates from A. Muir and Sons' herd. Elderslie Fond Moolie, sired by Elderslie Fond Sir Model, the first prize Aged and Best Uddered cow, had a superior udder, height at withers and strength of top to place over the medium size, dairy four-year-old, Elderslie Man-O-War. Muir also exhibi- ted the first prize three-year- old and Breeder's Herd. 4-H member, Cynthia Budd, Port Hope topped the Senior Calf Class with her Apache Citation Stylemaster calf. First in the Dry Cow class went to Sikmas Penny Cita- tion shown by Pier Sikma, Orono. A letter was received by the Town of Newcastle from the Ministry of Transportation and Communication inform- ing council the results of a study carried out this sum- mer at the intersection of Highway 35-115 and Durham Regional Road 17 South (Clarke 3rd line). The letter informed council that the investigation indi- cated that traffic control signs will soon be required at the intersection however some geometric changes will have to be made before signals can be installed. It was also pointed out that Highway 35-115 was exper- iencing long delays and backups at the signalized intersection at Kirby. This is due to a single through lane for southbound traffic at the intersection and it is antici- pated that the same condition would develop at Highway 115 and Road 17 with stop lights unless additional lanes are provided through the inter- section. The letter said this imp- rovement would be put on the construction program and will be scheduled as soon as possible. Traffic control sig- nals would then be installed once the reconstruction is completed. No time limit was given for the work. before a representative of the Travel Survey-staff contacts them by telephone. Persons' residing in the sample household will be asked for information about trips made on an average weekday. Information gath- ered in this survey will be treated confidentially and will be used only in statistical summaries for planning pur- poses. The co-operation of those persons who will be called on during the survey is neces- sary to assist in the planning of better transportation fac- ilities. As Mr. Beath stated: "the survey will be an excellent step forward in "regional planning" in its broadest sense. By taking the short time needed to answer the questions asked, the persons interviewed will be benefitting themselves and ail other residents of Durham Region". The survey will be conduct- ed in three stages. The area municipalities of Pickering, Ajax, Whitby and Newcastle will be surveyed this FaIl starting in late September. The City of Oshawa is scheduled to be surveyed in the Spring of 1979 and the three northern townships of Brock, Scugog and Uxbridge will be surveyed in the Fall of 1979.
