By the authority granted in ORS 374.060, State may, with the official <br />approval of City, close any street, highway, or road of City at or near its point <br />of intersection with a throughway, or make provisions for carrying the street or <br />road over or under the throughway, or provide a connection with a throughway by <br />means of a utility or service road to a suitable point of connection, and do any <br />and all work on the street, highway, or road as is necessary therefore. <br />6. By the authority granted in ORS 374.070, no street shall, after es- <br />tablishment of any throughway in or through a municipality, be constructed turning <br />into or intersecting the throughway unless the plans and specifications therefore <br />have first been submitted to and approved in writing by the State Highway Commission <br />and made a matter of official record. <br />7. By the authority granted in ORS 373.030, State may not change the <br />grade of any street or road within the limits of City over which state highway <br />traffic is routed without the consent of City. <br />
