Beach funding eyed for highway projects near Hampton
After a lengthy hearing the appropriations panel amended funding totaling 511000 for state highway work to protect North Beach from Hampton to Great Bear's Th. The plan hinges on the town ceding land east of the present highway from Haverhill avenue to the Coast Guard station except Great Boar's Head. Tolls on the bridge are expected to cover costs within years. The bill allows the Governor and Council to seek federal aid under Roosevelt era public works funds.
