Swamps on right-of-way of 156-mi road necessitated removal of over 4,000,000 cu yd of peat, muck and marl and backfilling with 5,000,000 cu yd of granular borrow for special fill; work has been done largely with draglines assisted by dump wagons, dump trucks, scrapers and dozers; jetting was used in three locations to help expediate work and provide additional consolidation of granular fill.
