Gentlemen:
In accordance with the provisions of
section 1527-r1 s. IS. / hereby rec
ommend that change be made in the
primary road system Of Hamilton
county as follows:
Beginning at point approximately
u mile east of the S. w. corner of
section 33-S9-2G, where the present
road, known as the Hawkeye Highway,
crosses the Illinois Central Railway,
thence east along the north side of the
l. G. right of way and bordering same
t.; the S. +. corner of said section 333,
thence continuing eastward along the
right-Of-way Of said l. G. Ry. but
wholly within said right Of-way to a
point approximately 800 feet west of
the south u corner of section 34-S9-2G,
there to connect with the present road
going east.
This proposed road will replace the
present location which lies south of the
railroad and will straighten the road
ard eliminate two railway crossings
for all east and west traffic. In the
event that the new location is adopted
and improved the present road may be
dropped from the primary road system
and turned back to the township.
Surveys of this proposed change have
been made by the State Highway Com
mission in connection with a proposed
Improvement of the entire Hawkeye
Highway in Hamilton county. Plans
for this improvement are on file in the
Office of the county auditor under date
Of Oct. 4, 1920, and require 80 foot
right ofway located as above describ
cd, and the consent, cooperation, and
p, Emission of the State Highway Com
mission and federal government to the
Improvement as proposed in said plans
are with held until this right Ofway
is secured. 1 therefore recommend that
