TO EXAMINE STATE BRIDGES
HARTFORD. May 28.—-Stute high-
way Commissioner Bennett has con-
firmed a. report that divers have been
engaged to make a careful examina-
tion of the foundations and piers of
highway bridges spanning the Connec-
ticut river. The work will begin Mon—
day. A thorough investigation of the
Thames river bridge between New
London and Groton has also been
planned. following charges at legisla-
tive hearing that the structure which
was made over from a railroad bridge.
Is not strong enough to stand the traf-
fic to which it is subjected.
“We have absolutely no reason 10
suspect that any of the bridges are un-
safe" Commissioner Bennett empha.
lined. He said that the decision to ex-
amine the Thames river bridge was,
due to a desire to secure certain tech-
nical data and incidentally to reassure
skeptics that there is no danger of a
collapse. as predicted at the legislative
hearing.
