Engineer Storrs Tells Selectmen They
Need Have No Apprehension as
to West River Structure.

Engineer John w. Storrs of Concord,
n. H., consulting engineer for the towns
of Brattleboro and Hinsdale in connec-
ton with the proposed new steel bridge
across the Connecticut river here, was in
town last night and part of this fore
noon in consultation with the selectmen.
Engineer Storrs and Selectman A. ID.
Wyatt visited the covered wooden bridge
across the mouth of West river this
morning, and Mr.. Storrs stated that for
small expense the bridge could be made
strong enough to sustain indefinitely the
traffic to which it will be subjected
His plan is to tie the arches and truss
work more firmly together, so as to effect
more even distribution of the load. to
strengthen the floor, which can be dnoe
best when the river is covered with ice,
and to guy the arches to prevent further
downstream movement
With this done Mr. Storrs says the Sc
lectmen need have no apprehension that
the bridge will go down.
