The Canyonville-Galesville section is what is generally known as Cow
Creek Canyon, one of the worst stretches on the Pacific Highway. This
section is 9.7 miles in length, and is to be graded sixteen feet wide;
the estimated total cost being $211,000.00. The work is under contract
to John Hampshire & Co., of Grants Pass.
The Three Rivers Project is 10.35 miles in length and lies between Hebo
and Dolph on the Portland-Tillamook Highway in Tillamook County. The
County of Tillamook, represented by its County Court was the low bidder
on this work, but before the contract was entered into, the Attorney
General ruled that the County Court had no authority to contract work of
this kind. The State Highway Department having available the necessary
equipment and desiring to get this important piece of road work under
way, agreed with the Federal Government to take the work over at the
prices bid by Tillamook County.
A tabulation of Forest Road Projects approved to date and giving the
estimated cost and amounts of County, State and Government Funds is
given below.
