CLOSURES SPRR
(Continued) Katzakian, Ehrhardt second, voted by animous
vote to have Locust, Oak and Walnut Streets re-
main open at their crossings of the Southern Pacific
right-of-way with the following findings:
1. Future traffic volumes on Lockeford, Pine and
Lodi with the proposed closures will exceed the

motorists using them.

long-range traffic planning and engineer options (i.e.
Pine and Oak as future one-way couplets).
3. Due to the major switching operation in the down-
town area Walnut, Oak and Locust Streets should re-
main open to offer alternate crossings of the S. P. R. R.
