Macadamizing Road
In Factory Section .
V
Work wa* begun Tuesday of this *
week in putting ro?-k on the road
leading from the lower Valley River ^
bridge to the Southern Railway crossing
in fror.t of the furniture factory.
The uoik of grading the road has \
just been completed. The contractor \
G. F. Williamson, is dressing up the
far end of the fill. The road is being
macadamized by the town in order
to put it in usable shape. This ^
Street has been practically impassable t
during the winter months for years.
I It has been too low and too narrow. ftnaking
it impossible to drain it. Now ^
with the street widened and the grade ^
> elevated atvd a good surface on it. It *
will become a first class street. ^
This is one of the most used streets
in' Murphy. Practically all the wagon ' ?
B traffic from the lower end of the tl
V county uses the road. Wood, "lumber ^
?nd other forest products are n
ibrought daily. e
