82


SPECIAL APPROPRIATION-BEAVER AND MAPLE STREETS.


Widened and graded with 3,114 yards of gravel and stone, brush cut, culverts widened, one new culvert, guard Jails and properly drained.


SPECIAL APPROPRIATION-SUMNER STREET EX- TENSION.


New lay out forty feet wide and two hundred and fifty feet long, graded with three hundred tons of cobble stone for sub-grade and covered with two hundred and fifty-five yards of gravel, graded and rolled by steam roller.


PATCHING MACADAM ROADS.


- Used six hundred yards of trap rock and cold patch on various old macadam to keep in good condition.


BRIDGES.


Over six thousand feet of three inch chestnut plank used in repairing of wooden bridges. Owing to the heavy load's plank does not seem to be strong enough so I recommend that Pond Street and Central Street Bridges be replaced with Cement as it is impossible to keep them in repair.
