Description |
"Alexandria Rd. extension to Pleasant Valley Rd. and Rt. 21. Valley View looking west"--photo verso. "East-west county-spanning road which will link Alexander Rd. with Pleasant Valley Rd. across the Cuyahoga Valley will start receiving paving with the first spring thaw. The $2,800,000 project bridges the Ohio Canal and Cuyahoga River and will be complete 'by September at the latest,' according to Chief Deputy County Engineer Arthur Dollard. The two-mile link will connect Alexander and Pettibone Rds. on the east with Berea, Bagley and Pleasant Valley Rds. on the west. Work included a less-steep access from Alexander Rd. and straightening of a 1000-foot loop in the river. The road will be two lanes wide but could easily be doubled later, Dollard said. This view is west from Valley View" -- from article. |
