Heavy cut in rock cleaves palisades for Hudson river bridge approach
Methods and equipment usually associated with quarrying and mining operations, rather than with bridge construction; approach cut for west end of bridge is approximately 800 ft. long and 146 ft. wide with maximum depth of 85 ft.; anchorage tunnels; air-compressor plant serving tunnels comprises two 800-cu. ft. per min. stationary Ingersoll-Rand machines electrically driven by General Electric synchronous motor; scheme of handling inclined tunneling operations.
