PROPOSED SPAN 1S STILL DREAM

Indiana Ave. Bridge to Be Planned After Creek Flood Project.

That new bridge on Indiana Ave.

over Fall Creek hasn't made its

appearance yet and there was: no

indication at City Hall today when

it would appear. The 250-foot span was to have

been built almost a year ago, when the present. bridge was condemned

and closed by the Works Board. To date, even the plans for the struc-

ture have not been drawn.

But many things must come be-

fore the bridge plans, according to City Engineer M. G. Johnson. First will be plans for remodeling of Fall Creek in accordance with the $500,-

000 |U. S. Army White River-Fall|:

Creek flood control program. Creek to Be Relocated

At the present time, City engineers are drafting the plans to relocate Fall Creek and widen the channel. When those are completed, plans for building retaining walls and levees will be drafted. The next step will be to acquire right-of-way for widening and the retaining walls, Mr. Johnson said. When all this is done, the City will get around to the Indiana Ave. bridge, which fits on top of all the flood work. There is no possibility that the present structure will be reinforced for temporary use while the series of plans is being prepared for the total improvement, Mr. Johnson said.

Uncertain as to Time

The Engineer was pessimistic about the speed with which the flood work could be completed. He said it might be six months, a year or two years, depending on how much trouble the City has getting the right-of-way and attending to the details incident to starting the flood work. In the meantime, one of the best ways of getting to where one would have gone if the Indiana bridge were open is via 16th St., the Engineer’'s office said. !
