Dear Sir:
In regard to the matter of concrete pavement IS requested in your
letter dated February 8 referred to this Office, wish to advise IS follows:
The first pavement wa placed in the spring of 1916 with 6Inch
reinforced concrete. This type has proved entirely satisfactory and all
pavement. There is no appreciate wear in our pavement and it looks
as though it were good for twenty-five years yet
The maintenance on the pavement has been very low. Outside of
flushing, cleaning and tarring joints, n o maintenance work has been
done. The approximate cost of upkeep is about two-ffths of a cent per
square yard. The initial cost of this type of pavement is variable in
different localities, s variable in fact, that it is almost impossible to
judge what it will cost in one locality by what it costs in another: This
being due chiefly to the fact that the cost of concrete pavementd depends
largely upon the cost of cement, gravel and sand. The price of e
yard of pavement. The latter figure based on pebbles and sand at $225
per cubic yard and cement at $3.50 per barrel and the job being done
in 1918 at the peak of prices. However, concrete in locality has
always cost less than any other first class pavement.
Fort Collins has 90, 260 square yards of concrete and 3,305 square
yards of brck-the brick between the street railway tracks-at a total
cost of $207,87776. A district is now under construction containing
1888 square yards The contractors bid price was $89t860.73. An
other job was let January % for 49,972 square yards at a bid price of
s1275o4so The bid price per square yard OF pavement OIL the last
job was $205, complete in place. The engineers estimate on this job
was $160305.23, strong competition between twelve construction COM
Guides only actual work and materials involved and does not include
interest collection, engineering, etc.
In closing, wish to say, we feel that the pavement could not be bet
ter and that it will compare favorably with any type of pavement built.
The traffic in Fort Collins varies from light touring to lotion cater
pillars, which is a varied as traffic may be in any city.
Hoping this information may be of some value to you, we are,

Mr.. A. I. lessen,
Casper, Wyo.
Dear Sir:
We have approximately $1,000 square yards of con-
crete pavement here in Longmont and none of any other
type. The Oldest was laid in 1915 and has cost to date
practically nothing for repairs. Such as have been occa-
stoned Have been on account of longitudinal expansion
joints entirely.
The cost of that laid last year, some $4,000 square
yards, was $2-25 and $248 per square yard for plain and
reinforced pavement respectively.
We are as a town undoubtedly we'll satisfied with con-
crete pavement. Yours very truly,
