HIGHWAY SURVEYOR'S REPORT


To the Selectmen of the Town of Andover :


GENTLEMEN : I herewith present my report on High- ways and Bridges.


We began work on Walnut avenue March 28th, grading it beyond James Grosvenor's residence, and then the entire length of Maple avenue. Shawsheen road was graded on the hill near Peter D. Smith's residence.


We then macadamized Salem street beginning where we left off last year at the Highland road, putting in 1000 feet, thus connecting it with South Main street.


May 8th we commenced on Lowell road in Frye Village near the Shawsheen River bridge and graveled as far as Warren Mooar's. We repaired the road from West Centre fountain to George Phelps'. Four hundred feet of Telford road was put in on Poor street, south of Lowell road. We graveled Whittier street, Summer street, from Elm street nearly to Mr. Welch's house.


We repaired several hundred feet on Missionary Lane, also the same on Highland Road. We graded Chestnut street from Main to Bartlet street, also about 200 feet near Warren Berry's. We graveled Porter street from the house of Henry Flint around the corner near the Weld place as far as the gate at Spring Grove cemetery. Also several hundred feet near the Stickney place.


A catch basin was put in on River street, Ballardvale, and piped through the company's land to the river, this being the only way the street could be drained. Two catch basins were put in on Morton street between Main and School street and the street and sidewalk were repaired.


About 700 feet were graveled on Lovejoy road, 1000 feet on Greenwood' road and several hundred feet on Lowell street near the Carruth farm. The ledge was blown out of


43


the Cutler road and the road repaired between Daniel Murphy's and Lowell street. Phillips street was repaired and also a few hundred feet on Woburn street.


We raised the sidewalk on Poor street, Frye Village, and repaired the one on Lowell road near Mr. Lindsay's. A sidewalk was built the entire length of the west side of Pine street. The sidewalk on Elm street from Whittier to Sum- mer street was taken down to grade. A new sidewalk was built on Whittier street from Summer to Elm street. Several old walks have been repaired. The gutter in front of Wm. Wood's in Frye Village has been paved at his ex- pense ; also in front of Village hall in Abbott Village.


Concrete sidewalks have been laid under betterment act in the following places : in Frye Village, 400 feet on Main street, north of Harding street in front of Jewett's, the gutter paved the same distance, the entire length of Brooks street, on School street, from Abbot street to the gate of Abbot Academy, on Salem street and on Highland road. The concrete sidewalks have been repaired on Elm, Essex, Chestnut, Central, Main and Salem streets. A concrete crossing was put in on High street and those on Main street were repaired. Concrete driveways were laid as follows: one on Chestnut street, two on Central street, one on Salem street.


The street from Tyer Rubber Co., to the square has been macadamized. Two hundred feet of macadam was laid on Main street, below the Railroad bridge. Four hundred feet was placed on Essex street near the Railroad station. Twenty-two hundred feet was laid on Lowell street from Harry Abbott's to the corner at Greenwood road in West Parish.


Gutters and catch basins have been thoroughly cleaned. The road machine was not used in the spring on account of the dry season.


Work has been done for the Boston and Maine, for the


44


Village Improvement society, gravel sold and the roller let, for which the Town Treasurer has received the money.


The streets in Ballardvale have been kept in good con- dition by the Town team kept there.


The balance of the appropriation left from last year for the new street between Elm street and Walnut avenue has been expended on the street and sidewalk.
