Concrete Road Turned
Back To The Township
Mount Joy Twp. Supervisors Told If Stretch
Thru Rheems Is Too Costly To Maintain
They Can Have It Vacated
We are reprinting an item from one of our exchanges headed “New State
Roads In Our County Listed.”
To read it one is lead to believe that our
county is greatly profiting by the State’s action and that the townships can
reduce their road tax.
Now read the other side.
It has been brought to our attention that approximately 4} miles of road
is being taken over in Mount Joy township. Naturally one would think
these are all mud roads but far be it from such.
Only last Summer a stretch of 1.7
This is one of the sections of road taken by the state
bound macadam.
miles of road was rebuilt of water
and will require very little repairs for some time.
But here's the rub. According to a new law passed last year, the state
has authority to take over or turn back to the township, any road or por-
tion of a road as it sees It.
When Mount Joy township was notified of the State's intention to take
over 4} miles of its roads, it also informed the supervisors that it is turn-
ing back to them that portion of the old Harrisburg pike from the culvert
west of Florin, through Rheems and Anchor as far west as the foot of the
hill just east of Elizabethtown.
This stretch of road turned back is almost
as long as the roads the state is taking over.
But even worse than that the State informed the Mount Joy Township
supervisors that IF THIS STRETCH OF ROAD TURNED BACK TO
THEM IS TOO COSTLY TO MAINTAIN, THEY CAN GET UP A PETI-
TION TO HAVE IT VACATED.
Rheems and Anchor were hit hard enough when the road was relocated
but now the state would even make it much worse by leaving them with-
out a road at all.
ed?
Can you imagine that stretch of concrete road abandon-
Thig is one of the most foolish suggestions we have heard of for some
time.
What would the Conestoga
were abandoned?
Transportation Company do if this road
Its busses have been using this highway regularly and
that being the case and since the road is again the property of the town-
ship, it will be up to the supervisors to keep it clear of snow and cinder
those hills and curves all winter.
That's the way the state is assisting the townships in this vicinity to re-
duce their road tax.

INSPECTION ENDS JAN. 31,
AUTOMOBILE CLUB WARNS
The Lancaster Automobile Club
calls attention of motor vehicle
owners to the fact that the com-
pulsory State inspection of cars
and trucks ends at midnight on
January 31. All motor vehicles
bearing Pennsylvania license plates
must have new “inspected and
approved” stickers by that time.
The current inspection period
began November 1 and runs three
months. Following the inspection
period there will be three months
of enforcements, during which
owners and operators of uninspec-
ted vehicles will be subject to
arrest and fine.
Thousands of cars and commer-
cial vehicles have not yet been
inspected and the Auto Club sug-
gests that owners have this done
without further delay in order to
avoid a heavy last-minute rush at
official State inspection stations.
