BIDS ON STAR ST.
BRIDGE NEXT WEEK

Bids on the Star street bridge are
now being received and will be open
ed on next Wednesday evening at the
meeting of the council. The bids are
being made upon the plans and speci-
fications prepared by City Engineer
Kimbrell and adopted by the council.
They call for a bridge of the type
known as the curve chord truss
bridge which is different from that
which spans the river on Main street.
The Star street bridge will be three
span affair and each span will be 102
feet in length With the small addi-
tional space between the spans, the
entire length of the bridge will be
about $40 feet. The Main street
bridge is but 100 feet long
The new bridge, according to the
plans, will have a 20 foot roadway
with a five foot walkway on one side
The floors will be of reinforced con-
crete with 5-inch thickness on the
roadway and 3-inch thickness or
the walkway.
The bridge is designed only to ac.
.commodate foot and wagon traffic
whereas the Main street bridge was
built strong enough to carry street
cars in case Pendleton secures a street
railway system within the next few
years. The cost of the Main stree
bridge was about $35,000, 1t is no
yet known what the Star street bridg,
will cost but 1t is estimated that 4
will be less than half the cost Of the
other.
