The. proposed route follows much he 'same .level and location as the foot walk running along Hays Creek on the side farthest from town. It then Is planned to cross :he railway tracks and turn to the northeast along the harbor side of the tracks. The engineer's estimate for the work is $11,000. The road Is planned to be built jver Canadian National Railway property, which it is presumed the ailway will donate for the purpose .is the company will benefit from t as much as the city.
