sport sys- Perhaps as much an idea for '
the future as the monorail, is a
comprehensive thoroughfare plan
currently being formulated, based
on anticipated transportation needs
in 1990.
"We are now planning a road
network to meet the probable
highway needs for that time,"
Robbins says. He adds the main
focus of the study is connecting
Ann Arbor with the outside world.
"Several key links remain to be
r e s olved," continues Robbins,
"particularly the State St. and
Fuller-Geddes penetrators." These
"penetrators" would provide rap-
id access to the downtown area
from I-94 and U.S.-23.
Before all these long-range plans
can be implemented, however, the
city must rid itself of immediate
traffic problems.
An independent traffic signal
company is presently undertaking
a $100,000 study which city offi-
cials hope will upgrade the pre-
sent signal system to achieve com-
puterized master traffic control.
In addition, the city has sub-
mitted grant applications for pe-
destrian overpasses, which officials
say would permit pedestrians to
cross the street without slowing
down the flow of cars through in-
tersections, as the less expensive
solution-the eight-way traffij sig-
nal-presently does.
Harris says the city is also seek-
ing to fund a study to result in a
large network of bikeways through-
out the city. "The next road bond
issue in a few months should in-
clude monies to widen roads for
this end," he exolains.
Other roads are being wdened
or extended in order to better
route traffic for the future, ac-
cording to city officials. Thus, For-
