Road Not Wide Enough A rather queer otute of affairs ha de- reloped at Chatsworlh on what is now known as the Chalsworth and Cooktville road, especially the portion of it leading throuch the village. The rod was form rly known as the old Toronto line and ia one of the thoroughfares included in the Ontario Government's plan for im- proving the provincial hinhwaya. The standard width for all provincial hiuhwav* under Hon. F. C. 13'g;s' plan is 00 feet, but the portion of the road running through Chatsworth falls considerably short, nf tho requirement. According to the ctakes which have been put down by the Provincial surveyor the cement side walk and thu watercourses on both nidt>N of the road are on tho provincial right-of- way. Nor is thia the only ditiiculty that will have t'i be overcome. Mr. M. Uamiigo's housa and several oi her build- ings are suid to anoroaob upnn the load allowance and will probably have to be moved before work ou llie highway i B computed News.
