"I also sent the letter to the minister to let them know that we want to secure provincial and federal fun- ding," he added. The regional councillor also said that he would like to see the construction of a new bridge "'to go along with the development we propose in Porth Whitby. " At a meeting that was held last Wednesday night to get public- imput on the Port Whitby study, residents said- that their major concerns include the CNR overpass that links the Port with the rest of town. After listening to presen- tations (rom the Toronto consulting form of MePher- son, Walker, Wright Associates, residents also cited other problems they encounter including bad roads, poor sidewalks and backed-up sewers. Residents also said that the temporary repairs to the bridge's pedestrian walk- way were inadequate. "I1t's not safe for pedestrians having it the way it is," Emm was later quoted as saying. "People walk over the bridge from the GO station." The reconstruction of the overpass is presently second on Durham Region's list of priorities. It follows the construction of a new over- pass on Park Street South in Oshawa to cross the CPR tracks. rT* Whitby 666-2811 Family dining -Take-out service Table service Fish & Chips including cole slaw Take-out only. $2.19 Offer go seven days a week Sunday Specials Suntil Feb. 22 ý_-lam -Major credit cards' accepted -Breakfast and dinner menu 'Corne see our new menu .-lO0Pm offer expires Feb 2 2 1981 Fisherman 's Platter Fillet of sole, scallops and shrimp.
