> Hello,
>
> My name is Peggy Crosson and I am co-chairing an initiative to save the
> historic district of Fincastle, Virginia (Botetourt County) by proposing
> a bypass around the town. This action would eliminate up to 2000
> vehicles per day from traveling through the town which currently is the
> only travel path from the northwest section of the county to U.S. 220, a
> feeder thoroughfare to the Roanoke Valley.
>
> We have just applied for a DHR grant along with a TEA-21 grant for
> purchasing land for a future bypass. The application encourages us to
> document structural damage to historical structures in the travel paths
> through town.
>
> My specific question or need is to find published research, if
> available, that substantiates the negative impact of high traffic
> volumes; i.e., vibration impact or other on historical structures.
>
> Please advise if this type of research has been done, and if so,
> where/how it might be obtained. You may email me at
> [log in to unmask] or call me at work, 1-540-981-7411. Any and all
> assistance would be greatly appreciated at your earliest convenience.

> Thank you very much.
