$25M east-west thoroughfare is transportation priority

Improving transportation flow and relieving traffic congestion was on the minds of city officials during a recent planning session.
One priority is a nearly two-mile-long, east-west thoroughfare that would be constructed between State Route 347 and Porter Road, primarily along the Farrell Road alignment.
“This will ultimately be four lanes,” city manager Rick Horst said. “We’re debating whether this needs to be a parkway per se, meaning six lanes at some future date.”
