ADril 19.1978 3 Take Steps To Rebuild Rail Bridge The first step towards the construction of a $1.4 million railway overpass on Mill St. in Newcastle Village was taken last week by the municipality's public works coniittee. At a meeting in Hampton Thursday, April 13, elected officials recommended that a formal application for re- building the bridge be made. "The time is ripe for the reconstruction of the subway," said Charles Ewert, a lawyer representing Scott Fennell. Mr. Fennell is the builder of the Port of New- castle marina project. Mr. Ewert told the committee that a substantial number of persons are already using Mill St. because of the existing marina. In addition, further expansion at the lakeshore is planned. Safety of the existing Mill St. railway bridge was also mentioned during discussions last week. Mr. Ewert des- cribed the structure as "a very bad underpass." 'I agree it's narrow. It is a hazard," said Jack Dunham, the town's director of public works. Mr. Dunham told the committee that the town has placed the bridge on a five-year plan for rè-con- struction and 1982is suggested as the year in which building could take place. "Mr. Dunham said it would take two if not three years of work to prepare for the project. While the cost of the overpass is estimdted at $1.4 million, the town's share of the cost totals 12½ per cent. The works committee recommended that all the necessary information to accompany a request for construction be gathered by municipal staff. VANDALS HIT KIRBY Durham Regional Police are investigating theft and vandalism at the Kirby Cen- tennial Public School follow- ing a break-in which occurred some time after school closed Wednesday evening. Regional police say un- known persons kicked in a rear door at the school, destroyed numerous items and stole seven trophies. Watch Hydro's Effects on Local Roads A budget of $19,000 has been proposed in order to cover the cost of monitoring Ontario Hydro's effect on local roads during construction of the Darlington Generating Station. The budget covers automatie and manual monitoring of traffic plus bridge and culvert inspections on about 60 miles of regional And local roads in the Town of Newcastle. In addition, a draft agree- ment between the Region of Durham and the Town of Newcastle, has been recommended for approval by the municipality s works committee. The agreement covers exactly how roads will be monitored. Bruce Taylor, chairman of Newcastle's works committee, said last week that the monitoring program can begin as soon as all parties have signed the necessary agreements. The proposed budget shows that monitoring roads will cost the Town of Newcastle $8,150 while monitoring regional roads will result in an expense of $11,100 to the Durham Region. Ontario Hydro is to reimburse both parties for the cost of the project, councillor Tavlor said.
