Cy JEFF LOWERS Siztt Wilier ' A recent grant of federal monies will mean the construction of bike lanes in Carrboro and a bike path to connect Carrboro and the University campus. The $107,360 grant was awarded to the town by the North Carolina Department of Transportation. The new two-lane bike path will be 14 feet wide, paved with asphalt, lighted and patrolled. Construction is scheduled to bein next spring. Larry Belkin, acting planning director, said the path would be built along the railroad tracks between Cameron Avenue and downtown Carrboro. " "It'll be shorter for a lot of people riding from Carrboro to UNC," Belkin said. "Not only will it be shorter, but it will be safer since there will be no automobiles." During peak hours, about 150 bikes travel Main Street each hour, Belkin said. "That's equal to 10 to IS percent of the total traffic," he" said. Curtis Yates of the state DOT said, "Carrboro has one of the highest volumes of bicycle traffic in the state. Because automobiles also use the street as a primary thoroughfare, Main Street has the highest potential for bicycleauto conflict in Carrboro." Construction of the bike lanes already has begun.cn . Greensboro Street,. Belkins said. Construction on two tike lanes along Jones Ferry Road is scheduled to begin sometime early. next year, he said. "The only section (between Old Weil Apartments and campus) which will not have bike lanes will be about one lane in the downtown area," he said. Chapel Hill already has bike paths and bike lanes on West ; Cameron Avenue, Country Club Road, Airport Head, Raleigh Road and Franklin Street. The money was part of a $400,000 grant distributed among eight Southern states. Carrboro received more than one-fourth of that total grant. The grant will cover 75 percent of the total cost of building the bike path. The remaining 25 percent of the cost will be financed by a 40-year loan from the Farmer's Home Administration. A pamphlet containing a map of Chapel Hill's bike lanes and paths and a copy of bike regulations is available from the planning department in the Municipal Building on North Columbia Street. 7 D A UNC 1! u, cum mb in FeseaLFCiiV Dy MARX ANCONA and WILLIAM PESCIIEL Staff VVrilem The UNC School of Medicine and the Environmental Protection Agency have agreed to collaborate on environmental health research, EPA and UNC officials announced at a press conference Monday. While both sides have run similar studies in the past, this is the first time they have agreed officially to share facilities and cooperate on research. The EPA has awarded the- school's Center for Environmental Health and Medical Science $400,000 to expand its staff and begin programs on the effects of pollutants. Additional money will be available for research projects developed r jointly with EPA scientists. Dr. Philip Bromberg, professor of medicine, has been appointed acting director of the center. The center will investigate the effect of pollutants on the human respiratory and cardiovascular systems, Bromberg said. The pollutants include smog, wood dust and cotton dust. The center's findings will be used to support future EPA regulations, he, said. ' The center-is expected to create some new jobs, EPA project officer George Goldstein said Monday. The School of Medicine and EPA already have close research ties. EPA's Human Studies Division is located on the UNC campus, and a number of EPA scientists hold University appointments. Many faculty members conduct research under EPA grants and contracts. EPA official F. Gordon Hueter said the agreement will lead to more joint research efforts. Under the agreement, ' the EPA will be able to broaden its research programs, he said. "We're quite excited about it because it will allow us to take advantage of the excellent resources of the Triangle . universities," Hueter said. Of EN 24 KCL'IS XEROX Copies ..........
