The construction of the bridge proper has been completed and with a few weeks operations on the east and west approaches, the highway will be in first class condition. En- gineers for the J. E. Fitzgerald Co. of New London, in charge of the job, say the work will be finished before the holidays. At present the ap- proaches are anything but attractive. There are deep ruts in the soft “fill” and one way traffic is the order. Room For Double Traffic The new bridge is 145 feet long and 25 feet wide, so constructed as to carry two lines of moving traffic at all times. There are two conerete columns at either end reenforced with 24 inch *I” beams. Six pedestals sup- |, port the iron work and 2100 tons of as the injury had been to his foot|ine use of the reservoir.

The roadway over the bridge will be constructed of con~ and jwo inch asphalt. Nearly 30,000 cubic yards of “fill” are to be used in building the ap- proaches to the bridge. The wester- ly approach is at a four per cent grade and the easterly approach at a six per cent grade. The highway leading to the bridge will be of eight inch gravel with an asphalt topping. When the road and bridge con- struction has been finally carried through, guard fences will be placed on both sides of the approaches.
