Access roads to parkway proposed for University
Plans for Clinton Parkway don't include building an access road through West Campus, a KU Endowment Association official said yesterday.

Martin said that the association supported the building of two access roads into east Campus. The second proposed road west of campus ran one-quarter mile west of Iowa Street.
