Type and Will Connect

From q Star Corrcspondent

ALBANY, March 31.-The state to-
day gave its consent to the construc
tion Of bridge across the Hudson
River Immediately north Of Peeksiill
when Governor Miller signed the
smith -Mastic bill Incorporating the
Bear Mountain Hudson River Bridge
Company, and authorizing it to con-
struct suspension bridge measuring
1850 feet from tower to tower, with a
clearance of 1875 feet above high water.
The bridge, it is believed, will i'm
prove transportation facilities and will
be of value not alone to commuters
York City by truck, but also to those
who seek to enjoy the recreation facili-
ties offered by the Palisades Inter
state Park.
The bridge will connect with the AL
bany Post, Road, three and half miles
north of Peekskill, and with the state
highway running through Interstate
Park, just south of Penelopen Creek.
Before construction of the bridge can
be begun it will be necessary to OBJ
tain the consent Of the Federal gov
ernment. which has jurisdiction over
all navigable streams
The measure reserves the right of
the state to take the bridge over after

sold to the state at the end OF thirtv
years the state may then take p 7r:-

An explicit schedule of toll RAJ
