Point. For this winter, the top,
or final course, will be on the
west two lanes, with a base
course on the east two lanes.
This will leave the west lanes
slightly higher, but no trouble
is expected because two lanes
each way are provided.
Paving from Central Point to
Willow Springs will be revers
ed, with the top coat on the east
side and base cost on the west.
Paying is nearing completion
on the Willow Springs intersec
tion where the new section over
Blackwell hill begins. This sec
tion will be opened to traffic
Thursday night, Merrill stated.
Varies In Width
The hill section has two lanes
from Willow Springs toHhe base
of the hill, three lanes on the
summit approach, and four lanes
on the top; three lanes down
the west side and two lanes into
the Blackwell hill-Rock Point
section completed last year.
Both base and , top coats
through the city of Central
Point are completed. Four lanes
are provided for through travel,
with a parking lane on each
side. Only street intersection ap
proach work remain to be done.
Target date on the project
was originally Oct. 31, but an
extension will now be asked for
next summer. The R. A., Heintz
company, Portland, is doing the
grading and paving, and Besson
ette and Graff, Medford, con
structed the three overpasses.
A portion- of the work began
in November, 1953. Most of it
has been done since last spring.
Finishing ' work ' will probably
begin around April, 1955, if the
weather permits.

Access Roads Help
Annual Timber Cut
Portland U.R) Access roads
in national forests are helping
to bring the annual timber cut
in the United States closer to
the annual tree growth, accord
ing to Ira J. Mason, chief of the
forest service division of management.
Mason, In a Teport to the 45th
annual Pacific Logging Congress
here yesterday, however, said
that federal and private opinions
still differed on the estimated
$194,000,000 worth of access
roads yet to be built. .
Mason said the national forest
timber harvest two years ago
was 5,200,000,000 board feet
aealnst an annual growth of
6,000,000,000 feet. The harvest
increased by 200,000,000 last
year, but the lumber strike this
year will probably mean no in
crease, Mason said. '
