Improvements Being Made in Practically - Every Road District WIDEN MILO GRADE Road Crew to Shoot Off Points on Narrow Section Between Milo and Tiller. Road work la starting all over the county, and considerable Im provement Is expected during the next few weeks. .More road dis tricts voted special taxes this year than ever before In the history of the county, and with this special money, which in some cases waa augmented by funds from the coun ty geneal road fund. In practically every road district of the county the supervisors are busy scraping, grading or dragging the roads, as at this time of the year they are easily worked, and if put In proper shape now will stand up well dur ing the summer months. On April 2 the county court ex pects to open bids for the paving of nearly a mile more of the Edenbow- , er road. The section of road which I was graded last year Is to be paved I this year, giving a fine Improve j ment in that direction. The court is also planning on spending about I $15,000 on the road west of town, I and will start that job as soon as possible. The road is to be straightened, widened In some spots and graveled. It Is expected that the money available will be sufficient to cary the work to Oak Creek. This Is one of the market road projects. Several minor Improvements are being made by the county road crew. The crew has been working near Melrose, blowing off the point of rock which makes the road nar row and dangerous at that place. This Job will be completed tonight, and It Is planned then to go to Mllo where there Is a bad place on the road between there and Til ler. The grade Is winding and nar- row just above Mllo, and it la the plan of the county to widen the I grade by shooting of a part of the Inside bank, giving a wider road - bed. As the prisoner in the coun- ty jail are used as a part of this crew tho work can be cheaply done and the county haa a number of these powder Jobs where lmprove-l ments will be made In the future. The county Is now removing the slides on the Reedsport section of the Umpqua highway, and Is widening the lower end. The gov ernment has appropriated 190.000 to surface the section between Scottsburg and Reedsport this year, and it will soon be open for travel. A ferry will be maintained i at Scottsburg until the county can obtain sufficient funds to construct a bridge. Rids are to be opened on the 2nd for the construction of the Coffee Creek bridge near Tiller. A large bridge which formerly spanned the stream was washed out during the December storm and a new struc ture Is to be erected this year. It Is still too wet to attempt work on the new section of the Loon Lake-Mill Creek road, but this pro ject will probably be taken up within a month or six weeks, ac cording to present plans.
