County Surveyor Reports That
Plans Will Soon Be Ready
OAKLAND, March 4. — The surveys
for the new Nilcs canyon road have
been completed by County Surveyor
Haviland. and the plans for the -con
struction of the road will be finished
in three weeks.
After that the work of constructing
the road, which will make winter travel
possible through a large territory that
is now for the most part impassable,
will be rushed.
The difficulty of building the road has
been added to by the presence of both
the Southern Pacific and Western Pa
cific lines in the canyon. Niles creek
will have to be crossed three times and
the bridges spanning it will cost about
$25,000.
