Weekly Photo Fun 4/22 - 4/28/16 - bdw9535 - 04-22-2016 WPMA-17 had just finished switching at Peter Lumber when I arrived. Bruce Re: Weekly Photo Fun 4/22 - 4/28/16 - BR60103 - 04-22-2016 We went out to see this today -- they'll be destroying it and filling it in shortly. This is a corduroy road ("The corduroy road goes Bumpety-Bump.") dating from the early 1800s. It was exposed during construction of Kitchener-Waterloo's new streetcar line. The corduroy road was made by laying logs across the road. This area was originally swamp and the road was built by a fellow who had a mill.
