70. These will be conveniently considered under the three heads (i) Railways, (ii) Roads 

 and (iiij Water-carriage. 



71. Railways. Jubbulpore town is the junction of the Great Indian Peninsula and 

 East Indian Kailways. The former, running nearly due west more or less parallel to the 

 Nerbudda, leaves the district at about the 20th mile from Jubbulpore, while the latter, 

 continuing the iron-road north-eastwards, traverses the rest of the length of the Division for 

 nearly 70 miles. At Katni this railway is met by the Bengal-Nagpur line coming westwards 

 from Bilaspur and by the Bina branch of the Indian Midland system coming eastwards from 

 JSaugor and Damoh. 



72. Roads. We have either (A) roads which, being bridged, sometimes also metalled 

 are capable of carrying cart traffic all the year round, or (E) fair weather roads, which are 

 absolutely closed to cart traffic during the south-west monsoon. 



The roads of Class (A) are : 



1. The Jubbulpore-Mirzapur road, which closely follows the line of the East Indian 



Railway and taps blocks 102, 105, 106 and 115.

passing through the large village of Katangi and tapping Block 100.

tapping blocks 87, 88, 91 and 92 of the Bargi Range. 



4. The Jubbulpore-Mandla road, which after leaving the Jubbulpore district traverses 



the Uhanwahi Range in a south-easterly direction, tapping blocks 48, 62, 63, 

 79 and 80. 



5. The J ubbulpore-Kundam road, running west and tapping blocks 45, 46 and 50. 



6. The Murwara-Barhi road, running due east and tapping blocks 11, 12, 13 and 15. 



7. A portion of the Damoh-Mirzapur road which enters this district about 16 miles 



north-west of Murwara and runs through the northern extremity of the dis- 

 trict for about 20 miles, passing close to Block 111. 



8. Sihora-Salaiya road, connecting the East Indian and Indian Midland Railway 



stations bearing those names and tapping blocks 103 and 108.
