The M J Grove Lime Company won the contract from the State Rounds Commission to build a two mile federal aid road at a cost of 551,182 30. The project, extending the Buckeystown pike toward Dickerson, could take about six months. One half of the cost is funded by federal aid with the state paying the other half. The extension would connect a twelve mile hard road toward Dilek erson over the Buckeystown Mine, aiding connections from Point of Rocks via Licksville. County plans include a macadam road from Point of Rocks to connect with the new route, forming a sixteen mile hard road toward the city. improvements have been reported along the Harpers Ferry to Point of Rocks corridor. A farmers committee near Wolfsville Sype died, delaying a planned road from the mountain top to Garfield as the commission weighs the Garfield stretch.
