Concrete Bridge.
Street Commissioner H. II Gllfillan
oompleted this week a concrete bridge
across Gilbert creek on Rogue River
Averue. This bridge has a heightli
to the waterway of nice feet aud a
idth of 111 feet. It is of solid con
cute and has an arched top. Owing
tn the creek not having so high banks
as at A street this bridge has not
cost so much as did tbe A street
bridge, the cost of this bridge being
but ff:m.'i.
This makes three concrete bridge
that the city has built and three that
have concrete buttments ami wooden
stringers and planking, and five wood
en bridges lave concrete mudsills.
There are over 40 bridges within the
corMirste limits that are built and
maintained by the city, all 10 foot
and over in span. These bridges ar
across Gilbert creek, Skunk creek
and Blue gulch. The big steel bridge
across Rogue river is under the con
trol of the county and tbe city has uo
direct interest.
