Turnberry Deputy -reeve Harry Mulvey objected to council charging past wardens for. the prints and suggested that the prints be given to the wardens. He said it was "pretty.small" of the county not to pay for the pic- tures.

Turnberry gets approval to.start. work on BLine Turnberry Township last week received provincial approval of part of its plan to improve the B - Line Road in time for the plowing match next September. The transportation ministry approved the start of design studies for a new bridge and is awaiting a report on the town- ship's request for a grant to up- grade the four miles of rough road. The township has asked that the B -Line be designated a development road, a proposal which was supported at the last meeting of Huron County Coun- cil. Approval would mean the prov- ince assumes the task of bringing the road up to provincial stan- dards, The province will also subsidize 80 per cent of the estimated $160,000 cost of replacing the old one lane bridge across the Mait- land River. Provincial standards require widening the road to 100 feet from its present width of 66 feet and paving it, at an estimated cost of $200,000. In its presentation to the province and to county council, Turnberry Township pointed out the B -Line is a natural bypass of Wingham, linking Highway 86 east of Bluevale with Highway 4 north of Wingham. It was felt the road will be needed to ease traffic movement during the match. Massive traffic jams are predicted at the inter- section of Highways 4 and 86 un- less an alternative roltte can be used. The township noted that, with- out improvement; "the road is unfit for other than local traffic. R. W.
