Hutch-Metro roadway study/Needs highway on-, off-ramps to relieve traffic
By Patrick Rocchio
summary
Joseph Kelleher, president of Simone Development Companies, talks about the proposal to include an on/off ramp from the south-bound Hutchinson Metro Parkway that would run through the company-owned Hutch Metro Center, and lead drivers to Marconi Street. This is an attempt to relieve traffic that backs up on Waters Place, the main thoroughfare that accesses Marconi Place. Since the street leads in and out of the area’s major commercial developments, this change could even encourage economic development.
