Road Department, in conjunction with this county, make a study to determine <br />feasible truck routes to by-pass the center of the City of Vero Beach. <br />2. This board has noted that the proposed construction of Inter- <br />state 95 from State Road 60 to the St. Lucie County Line does not contemplate <br />any interchange and this board strongly urges the State Road Department to <br />resurvey the apparent necessity for an interchange at Oslo Road. This board <br />points out to the State Road Department that since the original preliminary <br />surveys were made for this section of that interstate highway, approximately <br />24, 000 acres of citrus have been planted in southern Indian River County and <br />northern St. Lucie County and the marketing and processing of the citrus <br />fruit from this vast area will require the movement of an estimated <br />10, 000, 000 boxes of citrus per year. All of the existing roads surfacing this <br />area are presently roads of the secondary system and they will be completely <br />inadequate to carry this huge volume of traffic. The only solution known to <br />this board is to construct an interchange at Oslo Road for access to and from <br />Interstate 95 and this board urgently requests that such an interchange be <br />constructed. <br />3. That certified copies of this Resolution be furnished to the State <br />Road Department at Tallahassee, the District Office at Fort Lauderdale, and <br />the office of the Bureau of Public Roads at Tallahassee. <br />Book 10 PAtE 55?. <br />DEC 20196. <br />Smith, Heath, Smith & O'Haire, Attorneys At Law, Vero Beach, Florida <br />
