Bridge No. 716
Hancock Street, Salem, n. j.
The sewer on Hancock Street runs
through this bridge, so that the stream
has to flow under the sewer. This
small passage way became logged and
flooded the land over the bridge. When
the deck of the bridge was removed, in
order to open the channel, it was found
that the caps and sleepers were in poor
condition. We, therefore,, directed Mr..
Reeves to rebuild this bridge, raising
the elevation above the old deck. The
work has been finished in a satisfac-
tory manner. As the sewer pipe ma
teria1ly obstructs the flow of the
stream. it seems unfair for the County
to be required to keep the channel
clear. The City of Salem has agreed to
keep this channel clear in the future.
Attached hereto is a resolution passed
by the City Council agreeing to keep
the channel clear.
