At present 401 has made an abrupt end in construction as far as the New- castle cioverleaf.

Development association memn- bers also abject to present re- gulations about. signs. The de- partment of highways forbids signs advertising a town less than a quarter of a mile from a main bigbway, such as High- way 401. J. W. McMaster o! Millbrook said the village is now by-pass- ed by Higbway 115. Bowman- vile-and eventually Port Hope and Cobourg-will be by-pass- ed by Highway 401, This hurts business in these municipalities,. Lack of highway a4vertising is intensifying the situagtion. "lMilibrook's road situation is acute," said Mr. McMaten. "Our biggest industry is agriculture, but Highway 115 is, cbanging -the shopping habits ci prospec- tive buyers. They are neluctant ta leave Highway 115 to travel the bumpy three miles that lead to Millbrook." A resolution will be present- ed at the next regional meeting in Peterborough. It requests permission for at least one large sign ta be erected reasonably near the main highways, adver- tising the attractive features of the town. There would be no in- dividual advertising.
