Last Mile of Rt. 7 Is Being Surveyed
POMEROY Jan 18 On order of the state highway department the last mile on Route 7 between the end of the present improvement and the Gallia County line is being surveyed by local engineers. A gap of about a mile below Addison in Gallia County not repaved last summer is also being surveyed. It is probable these stretches will be improved this year says Meigs County resident engineer C W Metcalf. Little maintenance is being done in the county this month. In spring new approaches to the Yellow Bush Bridge between Racine and Antiquity will be put in. Six foot earthen fills will be necessary. The bridge is now open to traffic by temporary approaches which will be removed later. Minor repairs are being made this week at Rutland.
