THE LAKE SHORE NEWS. PRIP'V SePTRMBER 14. 1923 ALLOT $100,000 FOR TRUCK ROAD New Trier Villages Accept Sum Allotted by County Engineer Quinlan FUNDS ARE LIMITED Balance of Cost Would Be Met by Assessments Representatives of the Villages of Wilmette, Kenilworth, Winnetka and Glencoe in a meeting late last week decided to accept the offer of the sum of $100,000 allocated by Major Quinlan, county highway engineer, for the pavement of an 18-foot concrete strip of the proposed through truck highway which, it is planned, will extend from the south limits of Wilmette to the north county line at Glencoe over a right-of-way immediately west of and adjacent to the Chicago and Northwestern tracks. The acceptance of the sum allocated by the highway engineer was accompanied by a request for additional funds in the event such were found available. Funds are Limited The amount available for the County aid portion of the proposed highway falls considerably short of the Sum expected by the villages, but represents the total amount the engineer feels can be allotted for the north shore joute in view of the fact that similar applications from other sections of the county, including the north shore, have been made to a total amount approximating $1,500,000, and that there is now available only a fund of approximately $500,000, representing a refund to the county from the state for road work already completed and which is to be used in giving road improvement aid to various municipalities in the county. The share allotted to New Trier represents approximately ten-nineteenths of the total probable cost of an eighteen foot concrete highway through the villages. Distributed on a basis of the mileage of the proposed highway in each community, the sum Would be allotted about as follows: Wilmette, $21,000; Kenilworth, $8,000; Winnetka, $37,000, and Glencoe, $34,000. $325,000 Total Coat The estimated total cost of the proposed 40-foot pavement will be approximately $325,000, it is explained. The portion of the cost not borne by the county, it is understood, will be met in each community by assessments against the property owners and public benefit allotments. The plan to secure a through truck highway for New Trier township was presented for approval before a recent session of the board of county com- missioners, which expressed favor of the project. The highway, local traific experts point out, would have the effect of not merely providing a route for truck traffic but _oi alleviating the congestion of traffic on Sheridan road and other busy passenger vehicle thoroughfares. ________ Protect Your Eyes from Sun and Wind In summer the EYES frequently become bloodshot from the irritating effects of wind and dust.
