Hearing
(CenHawi from Page 1)
the present highway bridge, and
"move the railroad bridge to ita
proper place."
Fallowing mayor potter's re
marks advocating a new location
for both bridges, mayor George
Dill applauded the Beaufort may
or's statements.
Mayor Dill presented a proposal
whereby ap entire new bridge sys
tem, calling for tw? new cause
ways, would he built. He said
that even if both the railroad and
highway bridges had ocean draws,
it would be almost impossible to
take a ship through them.
The mayor pointed to the terrific
traffic congestion in Morehead
City, due to highway traffic being
routed by the port, plus all out
going cargoes being transported
through the main part of Morehead
City to the port.
To eliminate only one highway
entrance and exit, the mayor,
speaking for the town of Morehead
City, proposed another causeway,
possibly with a small draw, run
ning from Crab Point south to the
port. The major highway and
bridge would run from Crab Point
east to Beaufort.
Following the mayor's presenta
tion, 0. Meredith Smaw, New Bern
attorney, entered into the record a
letter he wrote to Gov. Luther
Hodges May 12. suggesting that
the new bridge be built in such a
manner as to keep the port area
open for expanding maritime com
merce.
Rufus Butner, president of the
Morehead City chamber of com
merce, endorsed the mayor's re
marks. Robert Darden. Southern
Railway, said his company object
ed to the highway going through
the railroad system adjacent to
the port.
fieorge Huntley, chairman of the
county planning commission, en
dorsed proposals requesting that
the bridge be moved farther north.
Sen. Luther Hamilton reminded
the highway officials that the port
is an instrument for the develop
ment and economic betterment of
North Carolina, not just Beaufort
or Morehead City. He said it would
be tragic, if merely for lack of
money, the highway commission
would jeopardize the future of
North Carolina by placing a high
way bridge where it would block
port expansion.
W. R. Chalk, president of the
Neuse Development Association,
termed "unwise" the building of
a bridge that would retard port
growth.
Joe DuBois. secretary of the All
Seashore Highway association, said
that much of the traffic across the
bridge this summer will be through
traffic, not just Beaufort-Morchead
traffic. He also said it is impor
tant that this heavy traffic be tak
en out of the center of Morehead
City.
Clyde Jones, Morehead City, ask
ed that the highway commission
take note of the many by-passes
built upstate and provide a by
pass here now by putting the
bridge to the north.
D. G. Bell, former aisemblyman,
said that this area would prefer
an idea that accommodates the
highway public and does not end
development of the port.
Bob Simpson, speaking for yacht
ing traffic, requested a relocation
of the bridge, with sufficient
height, to help solve small boat
problems.
S. A. Chalk Jr., county commis
sioner from Morehead City, said
the highway commission would
make a "serious mistake" if the
bridge it placed in the position
proposed.
Mr. Beard told a reporter fol
lowing -the hearing that the state
has estimated coat of i bridge to
the north, as recommended by
Morehead City, at $5 million. He
said that the highway commission
feels a bridge would also have to
be maintained at the present site
<t an additional cost of $2 million.
Mr. Beard also said that he
didn't know how far north of the
present railroad bridge the high
way commission plans to put their
proposed bridge, because only pre
liminary plan* have been made.
Highway officials attending the
meeting, in addition to those men
tioned, were W. S. Winslow, chief
hydrographic engineer; Charles
Snell, division J engineer; Roy
Franks, assistant division 2 engi
neer, C. y. Griffin, district engi
neer, and Ralph Morris, New Bern,
highway commissioner.
