Show STATE HIGHWAY IS DESIGNATED. At a meeting' of the state road commission held Monday ir the capitol building at Salt Lake the state road which leads from Nephiby way of Levan to this city was designated officially. So the ef fort of the commercialclub was not a waste of time and the delegates, Soren Anderson, William Metcalf, C. M. Madsen and W. H. Gribble who attended the meeting from this section sec-tion played well their part. The county will lose no time in putting a force at work on the Sanpete portion of the road, and we may look for the short cut route to this section being made available in time for service this summer. A road up Cottonwood canyon from Fairview for a distance of fifteen miles was also designated and will prove of great benefit in reaching the coal section of that vicinity besides doing away with the only toll road in the state. It is encouraging to note the co-operation which is taking place between state, city and county authorities in the campaign to encourage en-courage a better grade of roads along the line of state roads in incorporated towns and cities. Good roads cost money but is nevertheless the part of economy. |
