Weak Bridges Public Menace Plans For New Canal Bridge
City engineers and canal bridge inspectors warn that several canal bridges along Twenty-ninth and Thirtieth streets are in dangerous disrepair. Plans for a new Twenty-ninth street bridge are being prepared by City Engineer Blaine Miller with an estimated cost around 4000 to 1000 dollars. Liability for expenses remains uncertain as to whether the city or a water company must pay, with the latter denying prior responsibility but new laws possibly shifting costs.
