In 1967 the asphalt was removed from Market Street in Port Royal for the placement of a new sewer main beneath the surface. This project was in connection with a new sewage treatment plant that was being installed for the borough. The large horse chestnut trees that had lined Market Street had been removed earlier in 1965.
