001B6BCC Lions'ate Bridge Plan Considered Representatives of the Dwight Robinson Co. of New York. ap- plicants for permission to build a suspension bridge over the Lions'ate, waited on 8 sub- committee of the inter-mnnici- pal bridge committee. They stated that they would complv vrith all ieasonable requests of he municipalities interested. The corn panv ivas represented b) 5(r. J. A. Campbell, sfr. Hugh Muckleston and General P. P. Clark. It was stated that plans have already been filed at Ot- tawa, and the necessity of the municipalities announcing their svishes in the matter svae em- phasized. Would Spend $3.500.000 Referring to the demand of certain shipping interests that the main span be 1400 feet long with 8 clearance of 200 feet, Mr. Campbell remarked that this would increase the bridge cost to approximately $6,000,000, which, he held, would not be svarranted economically. His company, he said. is &vill- ing to make the bridge a struc- ture worthy of its scenic set- ting. and will spend $3,600,000 on it. The question of length of time before the structure becomes the property of the municipai- ties depends on the success of the bridge as 8 business enter- prise, he mid. The more profit, the sooner a sinking fund can be built up, he argued. RepLV(ng to City Engineer Charles Brakenridge, he declar- ed that on Ottawa devolves the final decision on which the firm ndll build the bridge. I'roposed Toll List In reply o sfr. G. S. Hanes, North Vancouver city engineer. sfr. Hugh 5Iuckleston declared that his company planned a 24- foot roadway with one six-foot sidewalk, and that the cost of increasing this to a 27-foot road vfith two six-foot walks would increase the cost on a pro rata basis. In submitting the list of tolls on which the company based its estimates, 51r. Muckleston stated that it is his company's proposal to place the franchise and the amount of tolls under the juris- diction of the Board of Railway Commissioners.
