Bitulithic Paving and Sewer Work Planned in Butte West Broadway
City council will consider paving West Broadway from Montana to Excelsior with bitulithic pavement. Preparations for a special improvement district are under way, with many property owners favoring the project. Sewer work progresses rapidly, with 65,000 feet planned and 3,000 feet completed, using two large machines. Completion is hoped before cold weather, as Arizona Street wood block work begins in the wholesale district. Mayor Lane aims to finish these major improvements this summer, with storm sewer plans near Second Street playgrounds also in progress. BR O Johnson, Montana division chief of Northern Pacific, visited Butte yesterday.
