Work on Route 40
Appears Shelved
Until After War
Planned Four Years Ago, High
way Improvement Believed
Postponed

There is little indication that any
work will be done on the project of
Strengthening and relocating portions
Of L. S. Route 40, until after the war
according to members of the State
Roads Commission.
This project, planned about four
years ago, included about six miles of
the highway between Cumberland
and Frostburg and also improve
mcnts between Hagerstown and Fred
erick. Part of this project must also
be delayed until after the war, it is
indicated, although some of the work
between Frederick and Hagerstown
is being done.
According to Ezra B. Whitman,
chairman of the commission, IF the
policy of abandoning all new road
construction until after the war is
approved, the State Roads Commits
sion will be allowed to prepare a con-
struction program on which it will
be able to start promptly when the
war is ended.
Survey Made in 1898
The survey of the Frostburg-
Cumberland road was made back in
1888 during J. Glenn Bcall's admin
istration as chairman of the Roads
Commission.
Options were taken on about five
and threc-fourths miles of right of
way, owned by the Consolidation Coal
Company, between Frostburg and
the Six Mile House, but no work has
been done as yet.
In 1888 the cost of the proposed
new construction was estimated at
about 100000.
