| | -- " WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 29, 1925 |S ------_ ---- OPEN CHANNEL HIGHWAY SOON McCormick Boulevard to Receive Traffic in Novem- ber, Engineer Reports GATE TO NORTH ROUTE Channel Route Will Relieve Congestion ~ McCormick boulevard flanking the Drainage channel, will be open for use by November .1, according to present plans announced by Phillip Harrington, a lieutenant to Chief Engineer Kelly of the Sanitary district which is build- ing the highway. Concrete is now being poured by a crew of workers along the strip sguth | of the highway's junction with W, Rail- road avenue, Evanston. The stretch of paving along the west side of the road- way from Main to W. Railroad has been poured, and the men are now working on the east side of the road. The center of the road between these strips will be asphalt. Stop at W. Railroad No plans have been formulated for carrying the boulevard beyond W. Rail- road avenue, Evanston. Mr. Harring- ton explained that the Sanitary district has no power to create a connecting link between the highway and the Green Bay road. Some other organi- zation must eventually undertake the task. This the county and New Trier villages propose to do. When the highway is opened in the late fall, it will be necessary to de- tour around the North Western rail- road crossing at Oakton street, Evans- ton. The railroad and the Sanitary district have agreed to construct a subway at the crossing, but the state commerce commission has not yet agreed to the proposal. The delay may make it im- possible to finish the subway by the time the rest of the highway is ready for use. Plan North Highway Evanston is considering widening W. Railroad avenue from the terminal of the highway north to the city limits. The present road is too narrow to be adequate to meet present and future traffic needs. The proposed through highway to the north county line would connect with W. Railroad avenue at the Evanston north limits and extend along the west border of the North Western right-of-way.
