BRIDGE WORTH Is MILLION WILL
SPAN MISSISSIPPI BY DEC. |;
NAMED FOR LOUISIANA KINGFISH

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 4. UP
The Huey P. Long bridge. finest
and most expensive span across the
Mississippi river, will be completed
by Dec. /, according to the New
Orleans Public Belt Railroad COM
mission, official builders.
The bridge, costing $13,000O00,
will be toll free. 1t crosses the rlV-
er about a mile and half above
New Orleans. The central portion,
crossing the river, is 1924 feet
long, but the total length, includ-
ing the approaches is A miles.
The floor of the bridge is 1876 feet
above the average water level. The
total height of the bridge at the
central portion is 274 feet above
the. water level. The bridge pro-
vides for two railroad tracks, two
vehicular highways, each 18 feet
wide, and two sidewalks.
Eliminates Winding Road
The bridge will make the high
way approach to New Orleans
much more direct, eliminating the
sinuous road which winds for many
miles along the 30foot levees.
Until recently engineers conSid-
Imperial Valley press., 1935-11-04

cred it impossible to construct a
bridge across the river so near its
mouth because of the rivers depth
and the swiftness of the current,
which at times is more than six
miles per hour.
The bridge proper is supported
by four piers standing in the mid
die of the river, and sunk to a
depth of ITO feet below the mean
Gulf level. The midstream pier,
standing where the river is 80 feet
deep, rests on sand 90 feet below
the bottom of the river.
Because of the location in the
middle of the river, special plans
had to be worked out to construct
the superstructure on top of the
piers. In so doing the engineer
managed the most extensive bal
anced type" of construction ever
known.
Steel Fabric Balanced
The gigantic steel fabric was put
together in even weight on both
sides of the central piers, so that
for months the work, from a dis
tance, resembled gigantic figures of
Justice" holding balanced scales.
