Uut the BUie Ridge Parkway

miles from Beech G*p in North
Carolina to north of Marietta,

Heps. Phil JUndrum, DrGa ,
and tfiojr A. Tajlor, D-N.C., laid
they will intrqduee lagialation
asking ior #72,188,000 to buiid
the scenic highway.
A report to Congress
said, "It is .hath feasible and
desirable. The , parkway possess
es a wealth of scenic and re
creational qualities, many uni
que and distinctive to this sec
tion of tke^onthecn Highlands,
and is fully in peeping .with the
National Pack Service defini
tion of ? national jjarkway."
The report allowed that 147
miles of the parkway, coating
486^77,000 would be in Geor
gia and 43 miles, costing $17,
801,000 .would be in North Caro
lina.
The government will pay for
the parkway. The states will ac
quire naertffl land and donate
it to the government and all
concessions will be built by
private .canttgL
The report said the burden
on the states will be reduced
because about one-fourth of the
North Carolina mileage and
about one-half of the Georgia
mileage winds through nation
al forest land which the gov
ernment already owns.
No .private access will be per
mitted to the parkway but there
will be at least 14 highway
crossings.
The idea of an extension
dates back many years, and
Landrum said "it has been a
dream of mine for many years."
Preliminary i n v e s tigations
were made before and after
World War II, and Congress
approved $35,000 in 1961 for a
study.
Construction funds were re
quested in 1003, but the Senate
Interior Committee requested
a survey instead. ___
The proposed route would
link with the Blue Ridge Park
way at Be*ch Gap and follow
the crest of the Blue Ridge
Mountains. It would pass slight
ly north of Cashiers and High
lands, near Bridal Veil and dry
falls on the Callasaja River.
The road would skirt Scaly
Mountain and then jtaas clow
to Estatoah Falls before crow
log the broad, fertile valley of
the upper Little Tennessee Biv
er .In the vicinity of Dtllard,
Ga.
It .would continue to follow
the Blue Ridge range generally
to Mt. Oglethorpe and then to
U. S. 41 north of Marietta and
the Kennesaw Mountain Nation
al Battlefield Park.
