Three cableways and precast units speed winter bridge construction
Construction of concrete arch bridge costing $300,000 across Androscoggin River, at Rumford, Me., in 45 weeks, by using separate cableway for each arch rib; units difficult to mold in place were precast and set in cold weather when pouring was stopped; building strong concrete pier and steel-girder substructure to hold arch centers secure in swift floodwaters; arch spans are 85, 105 and 200 ft. long.
