HIGHWAYS.
REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS.
To the Selectmen :
According to custom, work on the highways was begun in the early spring with the scraping of the principal streets, after which gravel was spread on the following streets : North Main, 478 loads ; South Main, 311 ; High, 177 ; Old, 152; Pond, 59; Canton, 54; North, 80 ; South, 48 ; Union, 257 ; Cottage, 35; Warren, Fowler and Silver streets, 276 ; Pleasant, 12; on the sidewalks in various places there were spread 190 loads of gravel and ashes, together with about 100 tons screenings of crushed stone.
Work of macadamizing was continued on Warren street, completing that portion of the street east of the railroad, 552 tons of crushed stone being used.
Main street on the west side of the street railway track was also macadamized for the entire distance between West and Short streets, 466 tons of crushed stone being used for that purpose.
New board fences have been erected for a distance of 304 feet on Union street, 190 feet on Centre street, 257 feet on North street, 140 feet on Liberty street, and 300 feet on Pond street.
On Liberty street the wall at land of Mrs. P. Clark was re-laid for a distance of 140 feet ; and on North street near the junction of Mill and Cottage the gutters were lowered on both sides of the street at considerable cost ; in both these cases the work, being done without special appropriation, has largely increased the amount of the general expenses.
On South Main street there were laid 100 feet of ten-inch drain pipe.
A ten-ton platform scales has been purchased and installed
12
at the crusher plant. In its construction we have used hard pine timbers, which, though more expensive at first than others, are in the end more economical.
The roller and crusher are in good condition except that a set of new jaws will be necessary for the crusher.
Our most pressing need now is a street sprinkler of modern pattern. As stated in a previous report, the one in pres- ent use is unsatisfactory on account of leakage and gen- eral bad condition. In my opinion, money expended in its repair is wasted, and I would recommend that a new sprinkler be purchased during the coming year.
