Snowmobile lubs ttlSi has toughentd its stand and has been joined by other groups in its request for an underpass below Highway 400 at the Shef field Sid road Peggy Brown tihSf direc tor told The Examiner today the combined recreational groups want the ministry of tmnsprrtation and communica tions tMTti to construct the underpass to allow them to cross the highway safety The trail at Sheffield underoad about 15 km north of Barrie is an important one for snowmobilers equestrian clubs crossoruntry skiiers trail bike riders and hikers said Mrs Brown With the widening of the highway to four lanes from two this year the trail ha been cut in half she said It is illegal and unsafe for these people to cross the four lanc highway Because there are so many people involved in the various groups the underpass would be wellused said Mrs Brown The Mlf has estimated it would cost $loritrio to build but she said the 14000 licensed mowinobilers in Sirncoc ounty are already paying enough in to the government and should mt be expected to raise the en tire construct ion costs Snowrnobi lers had considered trying to raise the money for construct ion Now the federa tion has discovered the wide use of the area by the other ncreation groups Mrs Brown said the underpass could be shared by all the trail users and it would be feasible for the government to construct the underpass Mrs Brown said the Mlt has suggested the trail users should use an overpass which will be constructed two and half miles to the west of Sheffield Sidcroad The idea is not good said Mrs Brown because the route to the overpass would be over private property The pre sent trail is on govemmeiit land She said she doesnt believe the landowners invovi oil have been contacted for theiropiiiion Perhaps greater problcrri will be the mixing of snowmobiles and vehicular traft ic said Mrs liniw ri Weve worked for ve or six years to establish trail system where were not rinsing snowmobiles and cars she said The overpass is intended for regular traffic and it would be dangerous to have snowmobiles trail bikes and hoses crossing with the ttlls and trucks The ilSt will hold public meeting with the other groups and govrrrinicrit represeri tat ives on Thursday at the oii tinental liiri at tip in At this meeting the proposed underpass will be discussed she said Mrs iniwn said the issue is very important because it in volves large number of local purple and marry sriowiiiobilers and other recreational group meriibers from other arecs who use the trail through Vespia lownship The Highway too expansion will cut the trail system of entral tntario in half said Mrs Brown It something is not done to maintain the trail mute its going to affect lot of priople she said Mental Health collects gifts Barrie Branch of
