UNL acquires
railroad land
for parldng lot
By Gene Gc&ircp
DUy Nebmsixa SerJor Eeportsr
A stretch of abandoned rail
road on the north side of UNL's
City Campus, is being converted
into a new parking lot, UNL Busi
ness Manager Ray Coffey said Mon
day. Coffey said the lot will be be
tween 1 1th and 17th streets and
will provide about 500 parking
spaces. He said Chicago and North
Western Transporation Co. (C &
NW), which abandoned the rail
road four years ago, sold the area
to UNL for $80,090.
The lot will be covered with
gravel and will provide only tem
porary parking. He said Lincoln
City Planners intend to use the
lot as a potential right-of-way for.
a Holdrege Street bypass that
would route trafSc from Holdrega
Street around the outer edge of
the campus. The plan b designed
to remove some of the traffic
from 16th and 17th streets, which
cuts through campus.
Coffey said the lot will not be
paved because city planners have
set the bypass plan as a long
term goal.
"Eventually the city planners
want to do it, but they havent let
me know when," Coffey said.
Coffey said the lot should be
ready soon, but said he wasnt
sure of a definite date.
Coffey said the land was needed
to accommodate an increasing
number of vehicles on campus.
With the railroad land, UNL can
use the land on the north side of
the right-of-way already owned
by the university.
"WeVe always tried to take ad
vantage of any close-in parking
space," Coffey said. This will
relieve all the pressure for park
ing on the north side of the
university."
