Kanwaka Stull residents urge road repairs on eight mile stretch
About 32 men from Kanwaka Stull met with the county commission and County Engineer to push repairs on eight miles of county road through Kanwaka township. They cited heavy wartime and postwar traffic, recurrent mud, and frequent vehicle recoveries as proof of deterioration. Officials said weather-permitting work would target the worst spots, with emergency repairs delaying major reconstruction. A stockpile of crushed rock will be prepared from a local quarry, and a $30,001.50 industrial tractor plus a front end loader were purchased to speed work, aligning county crews with quarry locations in the east and west.
