This is the last season that sum- 
mer residents of Marblehead Neck 
and visitors will have to drive over 
the old road between the town and 
the neck, for within a short time 
work is to begin on the improvement 
of this place, and it probably will be 
finished before next summer. When 
it is done the narrow strip of rock 
and stone will be a beautiful cause- 
way with a first-class driving road, 
a fine walk and seawalls on either 
side. The highway commission, to 
which the Legislature delegated the 
duty of expending the special ap- 
propriation of $50,000 for the 
Marblehead Neck improvements, has 
prepared the specifications and is 
about to advertise for bids. There is 
a stretch of about a half-mile and 
the specifications call for the con- 
struction of a breakwater along the 
ocean side with riprap outside the 
wall, the rebuilding of a part of the 
wall on the harbor side, the strength- 
ening of this wall its entire length, 
and the construction of a causeway 
forty feet wide between these walls. 
Thirty feet of the width of the cause- 
way will be occupied by a first- 
class macadam road, probably with 
dustless surface. The remaining ten 
feet will be used for a walk. The 
road across to the Neck was badly 
damaged last fall by a storm, but it 
was put in fair condition and has 
been serviceable this summer,
