STATE HICHWAY DEPT.
WILL COMPLETE THE ROAD
The Elizabethtown Chamber of
Commerce for the last month were
in communication with the State
Highway Department relative to
one mile of road from the borough
limits to the macadam road built
by West Donegal township, which
is in a poor condition, asking that
the State build and finance this
mile of road. A communication re-
ceived by the secretary of the
chamber, D. L. Landis, states that
the road project has been consider-
ed favorably and the road will be
built and financed by the State.
The Elizabethtown Borough Coun-
cil will be asked by the chamber to
lay a macadam surface on May-
town avenue, leading to the maca-
dam road to be built by the State
Highway Department, and the West
Donegal township road, thus form-
ing a continuous macadam road to
Maytown and Marietta. Indications
are that the Elizabethtown Borough
Council will also reply favorably to
the Chamber of Commerce.
