TO THE CUAIRlV'lAN AND r~JEMBERS
OF THE COUnTY OF ELGIN IjOAD C01\JI.lITTEE.
I should like to report on the present condition
of the COW1ty of Elgin System) and. to comment on improvements,
and changes thAt have been made since I have been appointed,
and to a.lso bring -co your attention some ot the needs to
this Road System, which in my opinion should be carried
out.
The Oounty of Elgin Road System presently consists
of 27;.95 miles; 30 miles of which is under the jurisdiction
ot the St. Thomas Suburban Commission. It is expected that
Smiles ot asphalt resurfacing over concrete tdll be added
to the County System when King's Highways 75 and 77 are
reverted to the Oounty Road System. The present Road System
may be divided into 4. types, as to !load Surfaces:-
(1) Gravel Surfaces,
(2) Su~:race Treated Roads sealecl l'l~th Tar and Chip,
g~nerally ~ererred to as Seal Ooated,
(.3 ) IVlulCh and HQt I-Lix Surfa.ce, and
(4) Con~rete a.nd Bit\1fninous covered Concrete Surfacesf
Tot-a.la r.>t ~ach type ot Road Surfa.ces for the various
M~n1cipalities are as follows. Townliu$ mileage is credited
1/2 to each Municipality:-

Traffic and the Needs of this Road System vary
greatly throughout the County. Trai:'fic vaI~:tea from approxi-
mately 2;00 vehicles per da.y on Suburban Road 25) the
\lel.lington Road, to less than 100 vehicles on certain gravel
roads in some Townships. Some of the mor~ heavily uravelled
roads in the County Systera are Road 42 from Higrlll'tTB.Y 73 to
Port Bvxwell, 'liith a.pproximately 1000 vehicles per day;
Road .3g from Hi..ghl'lay .3 "'GO Straffordville , with appl~ox:tmately
800 vehicles I and Road 2 .f'l'om Nest Lorx1-e to Rodney t also ltdth
apprOXiIlk'ltely 800 vehicles. Roads with this voltune of t:~affio)
of necessity) must have mO);'Ie maj.l1ten~l1ce than roads ~rl. th a.
lower volume of trattic.
The question arises when a road should be paved.
The Department o:e High\"lays has done COIlsiderable research on
the' subject. Based or! a. Traffic Count) their opinion is that
once a gravel road car~ies over 400 cars a day it is
:i.mpossi ble to Yr1Ainta:tn a gravel stlrface economically, as this
l"oad must be dr~e:ged every der.Y or so t graltel added. yearly,
alld CaJ..cium Chloride applied 'to 'the entire length oft the Road.
vie have only 'tltJ'O such portions of Road at 'the
pl'lesant time, and steps have been taken to e~ssure the early
paving of these roads. These Roads are Road 3 from Wardsville
sou'thelttly tOlrvB.l'dS Rodney) approxirnately 4. miles jt nO\1 carrying
bet\.leen 500 and 600 cars per day J and U.oad, 38 at nichmond Hill,
no\'1 carrying approximately 800 to 1.000 veh10lea per day.
The volwne of traffic cannot alone be used as a
rneasurement as to \1hen to regrade and pave. III my opinion
County Roads tlurough all hamlets, regardless of traffic,
should be paved or have a surface treatment. I am pleased
to report tha~ such is the case in Elgin County.
- 4. -
A road, once it is paved, \vill dra1r1 tr~atf1c from.
other unpaved roads in th.e area and, "therefore, if a road
is nO'lpl carrying only 300 vehicles it may 'ttlell carry 400
vehicles once paved.
'I'he decision to regrade a pOl",.tiol1 of road i's the
work ot: Oou:nty Hoad Con1mittee, basing their d.ecision upon
the need for the improvement and be't'tierment for that, section
of the l:J.unieipality. Therefore it is esse!lti~l that a
reasonable ~ileage be improved at one time, instead of a mila
here and a mile there, without any ayst.em ot co-ordination.
I ~m ~leased that you have adop~ed a ~l1ree-year progrpmme
which prov1d$s s~cn a co-ordinating system.
Grading and pa.ving our l"oads is becoming
extremely more costly, one reason being the better standards
tie are forced to adopt.. 'l-lith paving costing morE-)" tria must
make sure our pavement is going to give us service and not
break up under traffic.. These better stalldards are forced
upon us by increased traffic; the demand of the public for
be.tter and safer seJ:'Vice, and the laI~ge nuraber of heavily
loaded trucks that use our roads. "rhus we must improve
drainage) 1rliden shoulders and inorease the amount or
granula.r base in Oll.r roads. It is cheaper to build a road
to these higher standards t.han to repair it after it has
been. built"
This is,evidenced by the fact that the County
will spend enough money this year in repairing pot holes.
digging out soft spots, ate. in present pavanlenta 11 to pave
3 miles of County Roads. This does not inolude money t:tlat
will be spent regarding a. sectiono:t Road 42 w"hi.ch has
tailed completelY under the constant pour.lding of hea.vy
coal truoks from Port Bun1el1.
- 5 ..
\~
Most County !toads can be improved ~'l'lthout the
raovement o:t large quantities ot' earth. An exceptio11 to
this) of: oourse, is Richmond Hill and the lie\-t l"lellin(~'con
Road, Entrance. However, the addition of Base is an e~remely
expensive problslt'1. To provide 1.5....18ft of Gra.nw..ax. rnatel~itil
needed over new gx.a.des has forced the County into using less
expensive n~terials. hxtens1ve use of poorer-grade materials
has been made this auroraeI'. Almost all material has been
$ pre ad as, :t.t comes flllaOnl the pi"c. Soms of this material has
been more like a coarse grade of sand. HOli'leVer,; I think the
results b.a.-ve been exceptional.. Granular material in. Dunlonch
and Bayhmn Township is fast becoming non..e~istent, a.no. those
Pit O\;mers with any mateI'"i~l are raising their prices It
Thus prices of ;O~ per cubic yard in the pit are not unconnnonlJ
UnfOl"1iunatlsly the 61 tuation iio.ll not improve, as no doubt more
base 't'lill be required :\..11 'the future, and as local supplies
beCO!!lS depleted, especially after the cOM'1pletion of Highway 4.01
in \'Jest Elgin, prices oJ: this material \rl.ll increa.se..
In some sections of the Coun.ty the shortage of
Grantuar material suitable'for mulch paving is becomil~ acute.
Mulch paving has the disadv~l1tage that it must be sealed \\T~.th
tar and ohips every 3 or so years to keep out water from its
porous sur.faceoo rrherefore" to make an effective comparison
between Hot I'iix Paving and. I.lulch Paving we rtlUSt oompare the
cost ~or a period of years: 1, years has been selected for the
comparison, although both types should give trouble-free
surfaces for 20-25 years, J..f properly constructed..

Thus. ''Ie ca.n see if the cost of Is1ulch Paving
increases, or if~ the price of Hot llix can be effectively
Im1ered, the use of Hot ~tlx ~dl1 become economical.
However, if a road is expected to carry 2500 vehicles, or over,
per day I believe thcrt Hot Hix Paving should be used, as it
provides a smoother and more durable surface.
~'le must; keep up our policy of improving OU.%' roa.ds,
and must .face the fact that certain of' our paved roads must
be rebui:Lt. 'J:he reasons for this are obvious; most of them
were buil~ 10-15 years ago with very little preparations,
ditching or base. They have served the County adequately,
as they were built for much less traffic and much lighter
trucks. Some were just built 'temporarily) and the surface
consists of sev~1ral layers of tar and chips. ltoad 42 from
High\1ay '73 to Port B\J.rlI'lell; Road 20 from Shedden to Fingal;
Road 20 Port Stanley 1'.Jorth 2 miles t and Road 24 ~rom
Hight-la.y 3 to Port Stanley a.re the m.ost seriously damaged.
On these roads maintenance is not only a costly problem
but often (as on Road 42 this 5nmm~r), almost an impossibility.
110l'1, to look at our Bridges: We have a larger
nwnber of bBridges and Culverts which \ITera not built for the
traffic tioday t or even 20 years ago. NarrO\l l"lidth, v1hile
serious 011 small Culverts and Bridges under 20' span, C8.ll be
tolerated on longer Bridges if 'the traffic is not great and
the Bridge is sate for present truck loads. I10\1eVer; when
a Load L;imit of less than 20 tons must be placed on a Bridge
on a County Road we must look -co the early replacemel1t of
such a structure. Our problem Bridges include ~'lardsville
Bridge 011 Road :3; Richmond on Road 38; Eden across the
Otter Creek on Road 46 ill Bayhal11 '!'OW11Ship; Dingle Street
in Aylmel"', and Sta.lter Gully Bridge on Road 42 near the
f.icConnell Nursery It
~ 7 <<a
The task of Culvert widening and replacement must
go on, as at this t~me there are still 10 Culverts under
20' span on COtUl~Y Iioads of less than 22' in road width..
At 'the present t1.me lie are replaoing 5 or 6 Culverts per
year. There are also 38 Bridges of over 20t span of less
than 22' in road lildth.
At the presen~ time we are doing the majority ot
our Construction and Maintenance by Day Lahouz. and Uented
Equipment, This system has some advantages) i..n that iriS can
utilize much of our O\"lll equipment and exercise close control
on the work, and cl~ge OUl~ design, methods or materials
at any time it seems necessary. At most tunes this has given
an excel 1 ant job at a cheap price - for ey,r,:mlple, the
r.lcI\:j,llian Culvert 011 Roa.d f! was completed with excavation
for a figure of: approximAtely ~~43 per cubic yard. HO"tfleVel',
the method of tendered job has given the County some excellent
work at bargain prices, such as our Bridge Paint.ing job this
smmner. I believe that we should give consideration to the
tendering of sor:1e of our jobs, as in that way v1e can reduce
the cost~ of carrying out this \'/or'k. The cost of gathering
information to supply to Contractors, and the adJ.ninistration
of the Contract would be luore than offset by the reduced cost.
Ii' vie tender a job and find the cost too high ,,'re can al'Vtays
s.till do the job by Day Labour.
He ha.ve built, up a large torce of equipment~ and
trlith our experienced ope:.:'ators tie are able to do most any job..
Our equipment includes 5 Graders \'dth Snow Pl.OttE;;
3 DtlJup II'rucks; a Distributor Truck which doubles as a. sander
truck in vdnter; a Llichigan b"ront Bnd Loader; :1 Pick-up
Tl~ucks ; a Roller; 4 ;[t'armall fL'ractors \-li th I~lovIElrs; an
Automobile; a Set or Scales; 2 Concrete Lixers; Tank Car
Heater; 3 '~later Pumps, and Ail'" Compressor) all of which
had a !leW purchase value of approximately $210,000.00.
Our Smaller Tools and Equipment ,'[ould have a pm'chase value
of over ~lOtOOO.OO.
- 8 -
'iJith this amount or Equipment the yearly
replacem.ent of a sizeable portion is essential, as obselete
and equipment in poor repair is a hindrance rather than an
asset.
In the past 2 years you have made a considerable
nu.rnber ot changes i11 policy 011 our County ROB.de System.
Fore!uost amongst these has been the adoption of a 3-year
Progranme designed to provide more mileage or improved
roads at a lesser cost in the Coun~y of Elgin.
In this Prograrwne mapy problems of-- long standing
\015..11 be tackled.
Road Allowances have been widened from 66 to 86,
and 100 feet on new grading, to provide better drainage,
bat~er side slopes and improved winter conditions and safety.
Shoulders have been widened on new Construction
to 8...10 feet, and ditches moved back from 'the side of the
road ~o improve safety.
',[the amount of Granular Base on ne\'i Construction
bas been increased to provide against breakup or our new
Pavements, and larger amounts of poorer material used to
reduce the costs. I-iore local sources of luaterial are being
utilized.
The policy of the COInUlittee is nO'tfl to grade a
Road one year, and pave the next. This no\t'l allow's the
Road time to compact, and assures a better and smoother base
:tor Pavement.
The ~leighing of all Granular materials is nO'{.f
ba~ng done. In this, I believe, there is a. saving of a.t
least 10%. There is also conlplete accQrd ~ll1ongst Pit Otmers,
rEruckers, and Count~, ~'lork1nen.
- 9 -
" All Bit\nni nous m:.1terial and Tar are now trucked
to a central storage near the centre of the job, for a price
less than Ra.il rates. This saves money tlu"ough convenience J
as materials are directly placed on the job, thus enabling
more ttlork per day, as the Tflorkmsn do not have to 'ftJ'ait for
materials.
~'linter r.iaintenance has been improved through a new
type sander body mOUllted on one of our trucks, and an increase
in work done by our outpost sanding stations~
In the past year we have increased the use of loc~l
sources of' stone chips tor Seal Coating, resultin~ in not only
lower costs, but a better job.
tole nO\'l have a man at our gounty Garage, full time J
to act as storekeeper, timekeeper, etc. This gives our
General Foreman more time to attend to other duties.
We have in the past 2 years conducted extensive
Traffic Counts on all our l~oads. This gives us a very good
view of the general traffic pattern, alld assists the Road
Con>>nittee in major policy decisions as to the choice of
Roads to be regraded.
Looking to the ~uture, one can only see more traffic
and a greater demand by the public ~or service. This means
luore ne\tl Construction and continued and better' Haintenance of
our present Roads. There is not too much doubt that at our
present rate of Construction we are not moving ahead very
rapidly, as we are now constructing 8-10 miles of Road per
year and some of our present Roads are breaking up.
The solution is easily said - 1fmore tnoneyn;
the question is, nwhere .f'romit? There is no doubt that the
rate-payers regard the present taxes as being about as high
as can be borne. We, therefore, must be satisfied with what
lite ha.ve, or else encourage other governments J probably
Provincial, to raise Subsidies. I understand, unoffiei.ally,
- 10 -
that the Needs Survey conducted by the Provincial
Government' last year indicates the needs of the Municipal
Roads in the next 20 years to be considerably greater than
the needs of the Provincial High1tlayS. ~Je WAY, therefore,
be favoured with increased attention fronl the Provincial
Government.
There is little need to mention the individual
needs or the County Roads System, as everyone is quite
.familiar with them. The only solution is to keep 1ilorking.
Eventually l'le will coniplete the job.
