In all forty-one thousand and eighty-five (41,085) feta. WIDTH. We recommend that each of these roads be located to a width of sixty (60) feet. The road bed to he graded thirty (30) feet wide—fifteen (15) feet on each side of the center line, according to spec!tlcations and profile, attached to and made a part of this report. CONSTRUCTION OF ROAD BED. The road led shall be cleared and constructed of earth. No rise of grade to exceed four (4 feet per station. "• : —.— ; The Lateral ditches shall in all cuts lie at least one foot in depth, in fills two feet deep, and at least one loot wide on the bottom ”clth slope of oneb bank of one to one. Sewers and bridges with side drains to be located as in specifications so as to drain surfaaa water at all points front side ditches, according to specifications. MATERIAL. For sewers through the road bed best class sewer piiie to_ he used. The bridges to be made et capacity indicated in the specifications and gravel road to pay for same when costing less than seventy-five ($75) dollars, find seventy-five (i+6).dollars 'tF those costing more than that sum. ■*•■**“ ’ * For surfacing we have estimated all gravel, all broken stone, or part broken stone surfaced with gravel. COBT. . We have estimated that ail gravel fourteen inches in the center and ten inches at the side la equivalent to Macadam ten inches in the eenter and eight inches at the side, or six inches of broken stone at tlie bottom and gravel on top six inches in the center and two inches at the side; Gravel to be placed on the right side of the road bed.,four-feat from the outer edge of the grade, comiac toward tlie town of Rensselaer; to the,corporation line of said town, inside the certiorate limits of said town of Rcnsseiacr.the gravel to lie placed as directed by the Board of Trustees of salt town. We recommend that said stone or gravel shall he placed six inches below the upper surface of the grade or road bed. so that lower surface of gravel or stone will be six inehe3 below the upper surface of the dirt road bed.

The difference we make in graveling or macadamizing is based on our knowledge of when material can be had and what it will cost to place the same upon the road. Our estimate is based on good material either gravel or broken stone. If grave! Is used the larger particles should lie evenly laid in the bottom and the gravel should all be free from dirt, soB or quicksand. If macadam is used It should be so arranged that the larger broken stone shall he in the bottom and the smaller ones on the surface. If macadam be covered with gravel the macadam should be first placed and the gravel put *• top, to the depth indicated in the specifications. REMARKS.
