IT Is expected these boats can be
purchased from the United States
Shipping Board at a figure which will
allow Of the building Of the bridge at
an expense low enough to warrant the
expectation Of a fair return on the
capital Invested.
When asked why 1t is proposed to
locate the pOntoon bridge between
Yonkers and Alpine instead Of farther
down the river, Mr.. Fost explained
The reason for locating the pontoon
bridge at Yonkers instead Of further
down the river, is because at thar
point the shipping traffic Is very light
and the Interference with navigation,
In any way, will be negligible.
with the exception of the Hudson
River Day Line boats Zone each way
daily and tile Albany night boats
ItwO each way dal,y) and, occasional
Iy, d naval vessel going to and from
Iona Island and q freight boat to New
burg and the s~Lipyards, the boats or
tugs plying the river would not REQUIRE
the lifting Of the draw, but would
pass under the bridge.
