This thoroughfare will leave the main highway at the West Side Auto Uamp, continuing across the Pierce and Ladd estate, of about 60 acres and connecting with Dosch road near the Bertha- Beaverton highway. The building of this road will not only open a vast new tract for resi dences, which in time will develop a large trading area for Hillsdale business houses, but will serve as a direct connection with the proposed tunnel. It is understood the work is to be rushed and as soon as surveyed, that the road will be graded and rocked in order to have it open for travel in early spring.
