They also declare that the extension would greatly improve the appear- ance of Sixteenth street where it | crosses from Washington into Mary- land, increase the valu= of property in the vicinity of the proposed project and open the area to real estate de- velopment. Motorists traveling north are now required to use a lateral road lead- ing from Sixteenth street into the local terminus of Brookeville pike, where they encounter one of the most heavily traveled traffic areas around Washington. A survey made by the Bureau of Public Roads in 1932 revealed that the average daily traffic density from the pike's terminal point south to the District line is greater by far than at any other point in Montgomery County. The proposed extension had been widely proposed by the National Capital and Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commissions in 1929. Heads List of Projects.
