1922 - May 24 - Bass Lake Road Temporarily Bridged Through Co-operation of Business Men and Farmers

After two or three weeks of interrupted travel on the Bass lake road near the Medbourn and Ogden farms by the opening of the dredge ditch across the highway, a temporary bridge was thrown over thet ditch last Sunday.

The work was done by a combination of the farmers of the neighborhood and the business men of Culver.

Both material and labor were volunteered, but it is probable that the bill will be paid by the State Highway commission.

The bridge is 12 feet wide and 45 feet long.

Last March the State Highway ci re mission was served with-notice that the ditch contractors were desirous of crossing the highway and that permission was desired.

No rply has ever been received to this request, it is said, and when the contractors reached the highway they proceeded to cross it. Technically, they are perhaps in the wrong, yet the commission was in duty bound to make a reasonably prompt reply to the request.

However, rather than subject the people of that territory to further inconvenience the busiess men, of Culver were willing to assume the responsibility of the cost and to order the work of bridging the highway to proceed.
