REPORT ON ROUTE 29 BY-PASS

The President presented a brief report on the current status of the plans for the construction
of a by-pass connecting Route 250 West and Route 29 South. He reported that he had appeared before
the State Highway Commission to support the pleas of the Charlottesville-Albemarle Chamber of Commerce,
the Charlottesville City Council, the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors, and the Board of Visitors
(Minutes, Board of Visitors, University of Virginia, No. 12, 10 December 1960, p. 245) for the early
appropriation of funds to begin the construction of the by-pass.
