Greenbrier independent. [volume] (Lewisburg, Va. [W. Va.]) 1859-1980, 1920-08-27

OF WnlCh ihere are three; one steel
bridge, in good shape, and two
wood bridges. in fair condition,
now, but should soon be replaced.
There is scarcely any necessity TO
dwell on the present height and
instability of the labor and mater
ial market, all of which determine
the cost of Improvement, Hence
the unit prices above are about
what prevails nov for that class of
work, but may be higher when the
work is done.
The above estimate does not
contemplate any extensive relOca-
tons, in the present road, the pres
ent average grade of which is very
good. 1t only includes such work
as will. reasonably straighten up
the grade and give the road the
width stated above.
Respectfully submitted,
