soon begin to close u> the gaps in the trunk lines across the state of Rhode Island. There has already been con- structed 16S miles of roadways and the board has available funds for the building of about fifty miles of addi- tional roads, which will include the Shore and Potter Hill roads in the town of Westerly
 adopted in 1903. just 1SS miles were in cluded, but the work of construction has not followed exactly these lines, because new roads. have been added to the system by legislative action Gen. erally however, the old lines, as far as they were of use to the citizens, were followed out in the construction work.
 A large portion of the New London turnpike, which appears on the map to be the shorter and more preferable route to Hope Valley, was found to be en. about two miles longer, was found to be better suited to the uses of the people Had the New London pike been constructed, the average cost is estimated at 15,000 a mile, while by the new route the cost was $6,000 mile.
 The route selected goes through more towns and villages than the New London pike and therefore accommO- dated more people. Many portions of the roadway had been built by the towns and needed no repairs. All of this town macadem, so-called. is now under the control of the state board.
 The board has a balance of $500, 600 with which to build roads. The aver age cost of macadam is about $5,500 to s6,000, and that of bituminous runs from S7000 to $8000 a mile. Taking an average of S6,00o for a mile, the money in hand will build fifty miles of roadway
