wy WE DO OUR PART VOL. XXXIV No. 22 The Mount Joy Bulletin : $1.50 A YEAR IN ADVANCE WE DO OUR PART New Steel Bridge Will Replace Old Wood Structure ACROSS LITTLE CHICKIES CREEK AT SOUTHEASTERN BORO LIMITS—SAME WILL BE RELO- CATED. The old wooden bridge across the Little Chickies Creek at the south- eastern boro limits recently carried away by the flood, will be replaced by a modern steel structure. This will be done just as quickly as pos- sible. Last Thursday Engineer H. W. Crawford, Bridge Commissioner for Lancaster County, met State High- way engineers on the above scene and here's the result of the meeting. While this bridge is on a State Highway, it is owned by the county and must be rebuilt by the county. The County Commissioners however agreed with the State gineers, to relocate the new bridge in order to eliminate the dangerous curve at the bridge entrance on the south bank of the creek. On Saturday the location and en- tire surroundings were surveyed. From this survey the plans are be- ing made and as soon as completed, which will probably be within a week, the County Commissioners will advertise for bids. This adver- tising according to law, will require twenty-one days. Upon receipt of the bids, the con- tract will be awarded and work on same must begin immediately. The County Commissioners are making every effort to relieve the residents and all others who so fre- quently use this bridge, of the in- convenience of traveling several mi- les extra in getting to town. The Iron Bridge The Iron Bridge across the same creek, several miles down stream which was also washed away, is rapidly being replaced and will be open to traffic in the very near fu- ture.
