RILEY CREEK R. R. VIADUCT
NEARS COMPLETION RAPIDLY
The erection of piers and abut
ments for the support of the steel
which will form the completing part
of the Riley Creek viaduct, were j
completed during the week and now j
await the coming of the steel super
structure from the coast, the first j
load t>f which is said to be already
on the way.
The work of putting the steel
in place probably will be taken in
hand shortly after the first of the
year, and rushed to completion.
It is estimated that the viaduct *wilh
be ready for use during the latter
part of February.
With the gap at Riley closed, it
will be possible to operate trains p
from end to end of the Government
railroad, between Seward and Ne-'
nana. The result will be greatly im
proved service on the northern end
of the line, now restricted to the
use of one home-made passenger
coach and a combination passenger
and baggage car. also of home man
ufacture.
The completion of the concrete
!
work at Riley resulted, during the 1
week, in a considerable reduction 1
of forces at that point, about 30 i
men having been laid off.
Work is also progressing rapidly
at Nenana Crossing, where the last!
pier is now being started for the
wooden structure which will snan the :
X'enana river at that point. The !
sheet piling has been driven and j!
pumps are now being installed to J
prepare the wav for evcavation. 1
(
This pier will occupy a position <
in the main channel of the river, '
near the north shore, and will be
composed of concrete, and sufficient- I
ly substantial to withstand the rush'
of ice and water during the spring
breakup, and freshets of latter peri- j
ods during the open season.
It is expected that it will take
about a month to complete the pier,
after which the structure will be
ready for ithe superstructure, a con
siderable part of which will be ship- j
J ped from the coast after the Riley j
| j Creek viaduct is ready for traffic. |
