TO BRIDGE THE SCIOTO
------
Plans for New Structure Completed by Norfolk and Western

    Plans have now been completed by the Norfolk and Western officials for the construction of a new bridge over the Scioto river adjacent to the present one just west of Chillicothe.  Blue prints are now in the hands of the chief engineers of the road and the work will be begun as soon as right of way trouble is cleared up.
    The bridge will be built at an angle of about 60 degrees from the present bridge.  The abutment on this side will be extended and the first part of the bridge will be built on it, but the remainder of the piers will be separate, although built close together.
