WHEREAS, State Trunk Highway No. 7, as it passes
tbru the Village of Shorewood and from the Easterly limits
of the Village of Shorewood to the intersection with
Interstate Highway No. 494, is one of the most heavily
traveled roads in the State of Minnesota and, from the
accident reports, it would indicate that it is three times
as dangerous to drive on this stretch of road than the
average road of Minnesota, and
WHEREAS, the State Highway Department, acting
through District No. 5, has proposed certain emergency
changes in traffic pattern and repair of said highway
which have been fully reviewed by the Village Council and
found to be inadequate and wanting,
NOW, THEREFORE,
HE IT RESOLVED, by the Village Council of the
Village of Shorewood that the proposals of the State
Highway Department to make temporary emergency repairs on
the said stretch of State Trunk Highway No. 7 is hereby
determined to be inadequate and insufficient to meet the
needs of the citizens of the Village of Shorewood and of
this area who daily must make use of said highway and that
the only solution is the immediate upgrading of the highway
4Pdfor the State Highway Department to immediately undertake
a program to bring said stretch of Highway No. 7 to Freeway
standards, which includes separates lanes for traffic, over-
passes, diamonds, and service roads.
RESOLVED FURTHER, that, until said stretch of Highway
No. 7 can be brought to safe dr' �.n standards, the State*�)=ft
t !sll.11Tlt and local -GA1 ncrate their efforts
to prevent as many technical violations on said highway as
is possible and thus prevent or reduce the accident rate
on said stretch of road.
