CO-OPERATES B
ROAD BUILDING
v j
EUGENE, Ore., Aug. 27.—A co-op
erative agreement between the forest
service, the state highway commission
and the Lane county court providing
for the surfacing of 15 miles of the
McKenzie river highway with gravel
or crushed rock this year was filed
in the office of the county clerk on
Wednesday.
The stretch of highway to be sur
faced lies between Blue river and the
side road leading off to Belknap
springs. This is now under construc
tion. The original plan of the forest
service was to grade the road only,
but protests from Eugene and from
the territory contiguous to the road
led to a decision to surface it this
year. It was pointed out that the road
would become practically impassable
as soon as the fall rains set in without
surfacing.
This is part of a big project
mapped out by the forest department,
the state highway commission and the
county courts of Lane and Deschutes,
and includes the reconstruction of
the highway from Blue river to a
point 53.8 miles easterly in Deschutes
county. The total estimated cost of
the work, according to the agreement
filed in the office of the county clerk,
is $408,000, the forest service to bear
half of the expense and the state and
two counties the other half.
The plans of the forest service and
the state highway commission, in ad
dition to surfacing the highway be
tween Blue river and the Belknap
springs road, include the improvement
of Dead Horse hill east of the summit
of the Cascades this year. This is one
of the worst pieces of road on the
whole highway.
NOTICE TO BALL FANS
