The matter will be considered at the special town mecting next Wednesday afternoon. The footbridge, many think, should be replaced by a bridge that would permit of vehicular . traffic, but the matter of securing approaches and get- ting the necessary appropriation are considerations making the possibility of securing a new bridge doubtful. A new bridge would certainly help the development of Riverview, which has shown a tendency to grow, notwith- standing the handicaps of jocation in relation to quick communication with the business section.
