148 KEPOET OF THE . Xo. 3 



ROAD EEOM SWASTIKA TO KIRKLAND LAKE AND TOUGH OAKES 



MINES. 



This road, in the Township of Teck, District of Timiskaming, is the only 

 outlet for the "^ Kirkland Lake Gold Camp " and all supplies and material have 

 been transported by this route. The construction of a water bound macadam road, 

 in lieu of a railroad, was commenced in the season of 1919. The work necessitated 

 considerable expenditure in drainage and a number of minor diversions from the 

 original travelled road were found advisable. The distance from Swastika to 

 Tough Oakes is approximately 6 miles and the entire distance is now well surfaced 

 with crushed stone and steam rolled, with the exception of a few hundred feet the 

 surfacing material for which we were unable to secure, owing to a shut off of power 

 which put the crushing plant out of business a week or so before the forced closing 

 down of the work, due to snowstorms. During the season, 13,468 cu. yds. of stone 

 were placed on the road covering a distance of 4.9 miles.
