TOWN OF RANDOLPH
REPORT OF SELECTMEN
The Selectmen of Randolph herewith submit their report of the receipts and expenditures for the year ending Decem- ber 31, 1915.
The town is to be congratulated on the condition of South Main Street from Central Square to the Avon line, 9,565 feet of cement road, constructed under the supervision of the State Highway Commission.
This piece of highway is of a character unsurpassed by any in the State and is expected to endure at a very slight ex- pense for many years. This work was all done at the ex- pense of the Mass. State Highway Commission.
The building of the sidewalks, however, on this street, must be done by the town. On certain sections of the highway the changing of the street lines make necessary new sidewalks, while on other sections the old sidewalks will have to be re-constructed to conform to the new grade.
While the matter of street construction was being con- sidered, it seemed proper to endeavor to secure for North Main Street the same treatment as had been applied to the southern end, and the Selectmen consulted with the State Highway Commissioners and County Commissioners with the result that the State Highway Commissioners have agreed to put the northern section of North Main Street, from the southern terminal of the State Highway near the James Riley estate, to a point about one-half mile nearer Central Square on North Main Street, in approximately the same condition as South Main Street, the cost, to the

EIGHTIETH ANNUAL REPORT
amount of $9,000 to be born in equal shares by State, County and Town.
An article calling for an appropriation of $3,000 for this work will be in the town warrant.
