IGHTHOUSES ON ROADS (3 PLAN HY COMMISSION Contracts for Span Connecting Thermopolis With State Re- | serve and Across Snake River Are Pending CHEYENNE, Wyo., Aug. 18.—Bids, to be opened Aug 31, have been asked by the state highway commission for the construction of the proposed 2-foot reinforced concrete bridge to be built over the Big Horn river at Thermopolis, to connect that town with the Big Horn Hot Springs State Re- serve, and for the construction of the 650-foot steel bridge to be built ov the Snake River, near Wilson in Lin- coln county, to provide suitable con- negtions with the Jackson's Hole se¢ tion of that county. The State Reserye at Thermopolis st hecoming one of the leading th resorts in the west and in to provide a suitable structure ov ‘Big Horn river} the 1919 legislature thorized a tax levy of one-eighth mill during the years 1919 and 1920, to pri vide funds for its construction. How- ever, through the efforts of the state highway commission, in securing the approval of the federal bureau of pub- lic roads of this structure, the state will be‘ saved one-half of the cost of this bridge, as the project statement which provides, that the department of ugticulture pay one-half of the struction cost, was approved by tt secretary of agriculture on July 13 The Thermopolis bridge will be ono| of the finest concrete structures in the state on its completion, o neers, througifout the . been ‘ash and » signified their | intentions or submitting numerous de- signs, together with their bids for its construction. This new structure will replace the present unsightly timber bridge now in tise dpd in addition to the strength obtained through the, con- struction of reinforced concrete a bridge of artistic design wil be built. The design will in all probability be selected from those submitted to the state hghway commission on August Sist. The Snake river bridge, when com- pleted will be 650 feet in length and will consist of five 130-foot spans and will be the longest structure in the state. This bridge was originally desiizned and built "by the United States reclama- tion service and was only a three-span structure, 390 feet in length. On ac- count of its length being too short, and the approaches not being able to with- stand the action of the stream, when the Snaké river broke its channel on July 7, 1917, it washed out the east approach to the bridge, rendering it useless for traffic. A few days later the stream again changed its course and washed out the west approach, leaving the bridge high and dry, with the river running around both ends. Since the loss of the bridge in) 1927, c.

The financial difficulties, en- countered have been numerous, as all aid from the reclamation service, which originally constructed the bridge was refused, and on account of the extreme cost of a structure as large as this and situated as it is, a long dis- tance from the railroad, sufficient funds were not available, until the citizens of Jackson’s Hole donated $15,000 to- ward the cost of the bridge, the bal. ance being paid by the state, county and federal government. In order to prevent a recurrence of the Structure being lost through the action of the river changing its chan- nel, the state highway commission has asked for bids for moving the existing three 130-foot spans to a new bridge site, and for the furnishing and erect- ing of two additional spans of the same length, to provide for a total length or 650- feet. In addition to the usual ap- proach construction and bank protec- tion, 1,000 lineal feet of pile jetties will he placed in the stream to shape its course and further safeguard the bridge.
