Concrete Jacket Protects East Abutment Of Bath Brunswick Bridge
A 35 cubic yard concrete jacket was poured around the east abutment of the New Meadows river bridge on the Bath Brunswick highway. State workers supervised by A W Blaisdell and foreman H W Connor built a cofferdam and used river clay as outer packing. Ice pressure and river dynamics prompted engineers to protect the abutment, similar to Carlton bridge piers, while the west abutment remained unaffected.
