[Illustration: BITUMINOUS PAVEMENT ON THE PACIFIC HIGHWAY SOUTH OF
OREGON CITY IN CLACKAMAS COUNTY. GRADED AND PAVED IN 1918]
Paving--Oregon City to Canby
A contract was awarded on September 4, 1917, to the Oregon Hassam Paving
Company of Portland, for a sixteen-foot bituminous pavement between
Oregon City and Canby, a distance of 7.5 miles.
A considerable part of the crushed rock used in this pavement was
furnished by the Highway Department from a rock point which it was
necessary to remove in connection with the grading just north of New
Era.
The paving of this section is practically complete at this date and the
contracting company is to be complimented upon the excellence of its
work. The cost of the work completed will be about $135,000.00 of which
amount $102,114.85 has been paid.
Mr. M. E. DeWitt acted as resident engineer for the Highway Department
on this work.
