SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS REPORT.


To the Board of Selectmen of Weymouth,


GENTLEMEN :- I herewith submit my report for the year ending Dec. 31, 1898 :


NECK STREET.


Neck street has been graded and graveled from North street to Bridge street.


COMMERCIAL STREET.


Commercial street has been repaired in different sections be- tween East Weymouth and Weymouth Landing.


WASHINGTON STREET.


The hill in front of the residence of John Green on Washing- ton street has been scraped down, the hollow east of the hill has - been filled up and the street has been graded west of the hill as far as Shaw's bridge.


MIDDLE STREET.


Middle street has been scraped with the road machine from John Carroll's shop to Essex street, and fifty feet of twelve-inch drain pipe has been laid near the residence of Orin Pratt. Also at the corner of Washington street a heavy coat of gravel has been placed, and a twelve-inch pipe has been laid across from the west corner on Washington street to the river to prevent the washouts that have occurred there every year. The hollow near


100


the residence of Samuel Ross has been levelled up even with the road, and the wall near the residence of Gary Nash has been .re- repaired


BROAD STREET.


The north side of Broad street near the Franklin School has been dug out to the depth of twelve inches and a good stone road two hundred feet in length was built. The material taken out was used on the roads in the immediate vicinity. The section be- tween Spring street and Hunt's factory has been filled with stone, and covered with gravel, and rolled down with the steam roller making a good road. Near the Hunt Schoolhouse a new sidewalk has been built, the old drain has been filled up, and 192 feet of twelve-inch pipe has been laid.


STETSON STREET.


Nearly the whole of this street has been covered with gravel ; also a part of Front street adjoining it.


PLEASANT STREET.


Pleasant street has been repaired with gravel from the residence of Austin Shaw to that of Alvah Raymond. A stone road 800 feet long has been built running south from Independence square .. The road was dug out to a depth of 22 inches and a width of 26 feet. This was filled up with three sizes of stone. It was thought best to dig it out to that depth owing to the springy na- ture of the land. The material taken out was used for grading Central, Randolph and Pond streets, and for repairing sidewalks. The street was graded from the end of this new road to the depot.


WASHOUTS.


Owing to the unusually heavy rains of the spring and summer a great deal of patching has had to be done on the various roads throughout the town.


101


SPECIAL APPROPRIATIONS.


Union street has been completed to the Rockland line.


Bay View street has been worked os ordered by the Selectmen.


Philips street has been extended 375 feet. The road has been built 30 feet wide and has been graded and given a good coat of gravel.


Charles street has been graded, covered with gravel and rolled from Clapp's shop to Lake street.


The money appropriated for Summer street, has been used near the residence of Warren Nadell. The ledge was removed and the street, was graded for 200 feet in a northerly direction.


The appropriation for Lake street was used to grade the hill and fill up the hollow at the junction of Lake and Shawmut streets.


The appropriation for the new street off Pleasant street, has been used to good advantage. The street has been graded to a width of 30 feet, from Pleasant street to the residence of Thomas Kiernan, the ledge near the residence of Richard Connors, has been taken out and the hill cut down 4 feet, a bridge 30 feet long and 4 feet across was built and the hollow filled up 8 feet.


The retaining wall on Front street has been built to a distance of 700 feet, the sidewalk rebuilt and a good substantial fence of red cedar posts and iron railings.


STATE ROAD.


The state road has been completed from Bicknell square to Neck street and has been accepted by the State Commissioners. This makes a complete road from Quincy bridge to the Hingham bridge.


CURBING.


Curbing has been laid as follows: Cedar street, 265 feet ; Broad street, 80 feet ; Commercial street, 40 feet ; Jackson square, 30 feet ; Bicknell square, 95 feet ; North street at Torrey's corner, 190 feet.


102


FENCES.


Fences have been built as follows : Broad street, near Brain- tree and Weymouth car house, 400 feet, near Sheehy's shop, 300 feet; Middle street, near Carroll's shop, 300 feet; Water street, 400 feet ; Lake street, 200 feet ; Main street, 150 feet.


DRAINS.


Drain pipe has been laid as follows: Webb street, 120 feet 12-inch pipe ; Tremont street, 30 feet 12-inch pipe; Commercial street, 4 feet 15-inch pipe; Washington street near King avenue, 76 feet 12-inch pipe and 10 feet 6-inch pipe ; Central street, 500 feet of 12-inch pipe ; Torrey street, 100 feet of 12-inch pipe.


The bridge on Elm street near Mount Hope cemetery, which fell in last spring, has been repaired.


STEAM ROLLER.


The steam roller was used on nearly all of the streets where gravel has been put to any extent and has given good satisfaction.
