Resolved, by the county board OF
supervisors for Vernon county, Wis
consin, as follows:
Whereas, on numerous state aid
roads in Vernon County, situated on
side-hills, being so called "Dug-way
roads" serious accidents have occurred
due to the fact that no barrier or
structure existed to prevent travellers
from accidentally sliding off over the
edge of these roads and being pre-
cipitated down the bluff side; and
whereas, the state highway commits.
sion on the trunk lines has ordered
these roads protected by wooden bar.
rier; and, whereas, wooden barriers
are expensive and the necessary tim
Der required for their construction diff
| ficult to obtain; and whereas, on the
upper hillside of each of these roads
may be found any quantity of earth
and stone in the immediate locality
where needed for use; and whereas,
an earthen and stone barrier, the end
area of which would present a perfect
! triangle, three feet on the base line
and three feet high, would make bet
ter, cheaper and more permanent pro-
lection to travellers with automobiles
and other vehicles,
Therefore, resolved: that the county
| highway committee be and hereby is
instructed and required to forthwith
construct such an earthen and stone
barrier along such proportion of the
state aid roads in this county as viii
be deemed sufficient to test the suffi-
cheney of such protection, keeping a
separate itimized account of the cost
of construction and distance thus pro
tected; and providing further for a
sufficient way underneath such barrier
or through the same to conduct the
water off the surface of said road, and
report the result of such experiment
to the next session of this body and
to the state highway commission.
