Levelling of the hill at Carlow on the.8th conces-
sion of Colborne ,Township is expected to be
dully completed by December 1., according to
County Ertineer J. W. Britnell. Above is shown
filling operations on the western approach to the
hill. To date, some 22,000 cubic yards of com-
mon fill have ,been dumped on the western and
eastern approaches to the hill. • Gravel topping
was started this week. .Forrnerly, an approach-
ing oar could be .seen for a distance of only 100
feet away at one point near the hill top. Now a
ear can be seen approaching for a distance of at
least500 nfeet at the. worst point of visibility.
The levelling off of this hill removes what has
long been a danger spot for cars approaching in
opposite directions, paticularly wnen exceeding
tlIa speed limit.
