Lining a Water-Works Tunnel with Concrete
The Sudbury River Aqueduct, supplying Boston with water, extends from Farm Pond in South Framingham in an easterly direction to Chestnut Hill Reservoir in the suburbs of Boston, a distance of 15.9 miles. It is 9 ft. wide, 7 ft. 8 ins. high, and has a fall of 1 ft. to the mile. Its capacity is 100 000 000 galls. daily. Near the reservoir it passes through Beacon Street Tunnel in conglomerate rock, nearly one mile in length, and excavated in 1875. The conglomerate is crossed by strata of slate in places.
