Jefferson is the only county in Eastern Oregon that has not applied for
State aid in some form. This County has been included in the State's
general Post Road scheme and doubtless will receive early attention from
the State Highway Commission.
The State Highway Commission has ordered a reconnaissance survey made
from Kingsley and Tygh Valley in Wasco County south through the Warm
Springs Indian Reservation into Jefferson County along the west side of
the Deschutes River. This investigation will be made during the coming
spring.
The County is traversed by The Dalles-California Highway which will be a
very important road. The Antelope-Mitchell Highway also passes through
the northeast corner of the County.
