Street Paving Report of
Board of Trade Advocates

Permanant Work at Once

Either Asphalt or Concrete

24 ft, wide Along Centr of

Ali Thoronghfare in Bisiness Sectiof# °
Recommended

 

“The pressing need of improving the streets im the business

section of the city must be evident to all.

It may be true that

previously it would have been unwise to lay permanent pavement
on account of the danger of settlement at fills, but we believe

that danger to be past.”

This is the opening paragraph of the

preamble to the report of the special committee appointed by the

president of the Board of Trade
improvements.

to consider the matter of street

The report continues:

“The present condition of these streets is not only a disgrace
to the city; creating a bad impression in the minds of every visitor,
but also affects directly each and | = =

every resident, no matter in what
part of the city he may reside, or
whether or not he may be the
owner of a vehicle.”

The eommittee outlines reasons
why the paving should be laid and
says: “It is a well established
fact that a system of clean, well
paved streets is practically the
most valuable asset a city may
have.”

Bituminous Macadam.

The committee recommends the
pavement of a permanent road-
way_24 ft. wide down the centre
of each street in the business
section, the part between the per-
manent pavement and the cum to
be covered with waterbound ma-
cadam. “This would leave the
present sewers at one side, as
they are well out toward the curbs
and would allow using the old
trenches, which-in many cases
were excavated .from the solid
rock, for new sewer construction.”
The pavement would only cross
sewers at street connections. Af-
ter describing the requirements of
a good pavement the report con-
tinues:

“We are of opinion that bitu-
minous macadam should be -used
in Prince Rupert, provided that
expert opinion does not tell us
that our somewhat moist climate
will interfere too much with the
laying of this class of pavement,
which requires that the asphalt
must be put in during dry weath-
er.”

Second Choice.

As the next choice the commit-
tee recommends the use of con-
crete whith is coming more and
more.into use throughout the
country and which is the cheap-
est of all pavements to lay and
maintain, taking into considera-
tion the first cost, sinking fund
and annual repairs. When the
surface of this pavement wears
out the base may be used as a
foundation for asphalt, or brick.

The report suggests that an
effort may be made to secure trap
reck from Cedarvale, which it says
is better than granite.

The streets suggested for irm-

 

provement are Second and Third
Avenues from MeBride to Park
Avenue, and parts of McBride,

Second, Fulton and 6th Streets,
and Manson Way, the whole com-
prising approximately 10,090 feet
of pavement. This amount tix
report estimates could be laid for
560,000 and the water macadain
at the sides for $35,000, exclusive
of sub-grading. It is believed
that abeut $25,000 wonld
piecte the sub-grading.
Distribution of Payments.
The suggestion is made that the
property abutting on the im-
pPipyved streets pay 50 per cent o!
the cost, and the whole city be
charged with the rémainder. As
Ahe estimated cost of keeping up
the present condition is $3,500,
the cost of retiring the bonds
would not be great. It is also
pointed out that the G, T. P.
property Valued at $3,500,000 be.
comes assessable in 1921 which
at the present rate of taxation
would increase the annual revenur
$50,000,

B. Roerig.
