CONSTRUCTING ROADS BY
PUMPING IN NEW JERSEY
Holly Beach Turnpike Reclaimed From
Sandy Marsh Land.

A novel method of road construction
was adopted by the road supervisor OF
Cape May On. j. county in 1910 in
constructing what il known as the
Holly Beach turnpike. Holly Beach,
Wildwood and Angelsea are separated
from the mainland by meadows which
are often covered with water at high
tide. As nothing edible Is raised on
the beach and all provisions must be
brought over from the mainland, it is
essential that there be a convenient
and reliable road between the two. Up
to last year there has been a road a
little over three miles long which was
built across the meadow upon poles
laid on the surface Of the ground. This
road, as well as the meadows. was
frequently covered by high tides, rem
dering the road impossible at times.
Last year the road was rebuilt four
feet higher than the old one, or about
Eve feet above the meadow. This SO

ASPHALT ON MACADAM.
Fy -
New York Highway Commission te
Improve Newbura Roads.

luIp' NcWpur9 hoads.
At lie annual Session of the New
burg board " supervisors last De-
cember the New YORK state highway
commission submitted a proposal for
paving C~ochectOn turnpike with brick
at the joint expense of the state and
county. This method Of improvement
was strongly urged by County Engi-
neer Smith. The supervisors decided,
however, that i'm view of the state OF
the county's finances with respect TO
good roads they could not afford TO
obligate the county for half the cost
OF brick paving. and accordingly they
tabled the communication from the
state commission.
Now the state authorities have de-
cided To wait no longer for the CO.
operation OF the county i'm improving
the road. The state highway commits
sion has prepared plans for macadam-
izing two or more miles of the turn
pike in the CoIdenham section, where
the condition OF the thoroughfare Is
worst.
The macadam will be given an
asphalt surfacing and the result will
be a fine stretch OF road. The i'm
provement may be later extended and
a fine roadway provided all the way
between Newburg and Montgomery.
