Byrelocating this project and constructing an underpass at Cary three gradecrossings have been eliminated. Approximately $229,930 will be expendedin the construction of this State Highway Commission 85 Project No. 482 forms the final link in the hard surface road across WakeCounty on route No. 10. This project extends from Garner at the end ofFederal Aid No. 24 southward to the Johnson County line, a distance of7 miles. A good rate of progress is being maintained and an excellent qualityof work secured. The type of construction is asphaltic-concrete laid on aconcrete base, the paving proper being 16 feet wide, the approximate costbeing $174,240. Work should be completed on this road by October, 1922.
