A crew of Multnomah county sur
veyors headed by Paul Northrup,
were in Hillsdale this week, survey
ing a new road. 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.
