BIII GilfUlan° [5191235-2231 — Collect Calls Accepted District New GM1 County considers new bridge to replace Bali' Ball's Bridge in Culborne Township could be replaced with a new bridge two kilometres downstream on the Maitland River connecting the county. road running through Benrnlller with Londesboro. County engineer Bob Dempsey told the monthly meeting of minty council Friday that the most favorable alternative to replacing Ball's Bridge was to construct a new bridge to line up with the county road out of Benmiiler• He estimated it would cost $1.8 million in 1986 dollars to construct a new bridge exclusive of land costs. The ethgineer said five alternatives were being considered in relocating OE reconstructing the bridge. The first option was to construct a new bridge at a cost 1st of $1:8 trillion 2 km. downstream from its present location; (2) to rplace the bridge in its txtstinrt h►cation, tit's rust of $1.2 million; (3)reroute the bridge 1000 metres' downstream or 44) rebuild the bridge in the proximity of the existing structure. "`Che bridge was built a centum ago o and there are not many of its kind left h* On- tario so it has sonic possible heritage value," Dempsey explained adding that he thought Mooting the bridge downstream to connect Butunlller and l Ahdosbur�► would be the !nest attractive route. ` Some farmers have to travel 18 ken. to et across the Maitland River to Londesboro for feed or su plies. "It would create a better traffic pattern and provide better service to the residents but it also depends on landowners selling land to create a new road," Dempsey -said. He also told council that an unvlrunlnun- tai impact hearing would be required when the Environmental Assessment Act becomes law later• tide. your.

The engineer was asked to request a study of the Ministry of Transportation and Conununicatfun and the Ministry of Citizenship and (culture to determine the • heritage value of the bridge, He was also.

According to police chief Pat King, there was a very considerable drop in the number of drivers charged with liquor related offences during the holidayseason and the Goderich Police Force din't even have one liquor seizure during the month of December. - Chief King said the publicity regarding stiffer penalities for drinking and driving and the media campaign emphasizing the moral aspect that drinking and driving kills has had an effect. Over the last two months, Chief King, said he has known' of • many who would normally drink and drivel who now take a taxi, walk or use a designated driver. . New federal aundrovincial legislation calls for an automatic one year driver's licence suspension (up from three inonths ) and a minimum fine of $300 for an im- paired driver convicted for the first tine The penalties get tougher for subsequent Convictions. Chief King said people are finding alter- natives to .drinking and driving. Party goers on New. Years Eve took buses and taxis, walked or used a designated driver. If ,someone is charged, they can't cry the blues that there are no alternatives to drinking and driving, said King. People are still drinking, the chief says, but they've got the message, drinking and driving don't mix. Goderich detachment of the Ontario Pro- vincial Police checked more vehicles and found fewer alcohol related driving (hordes over the holiday season this year, according to Corporal J. C. Vessey. While the weather conditions were poor over_the Christmas and New Year holiday and there were not as many peuple on the roads, the increased spot checks and stif= Goderich builds If Goderich council alters runway Hl -28 at the municipal airport to a precision hr- strumont runway with a 1-50 slope, the transmission line proposed. by Ontario Hydro would interfere with it, 'Transport Canada said in a letter to council.. The letter will be added to the inform - tion to be presented April 18 at a hearing in Clinton concerning the proposed transmission route by Ontario Hydro which would locate hydro towers one mile from the end of the runway. At the December meeting of the airport sub -committee to "deal with the transmission lines, John Hopkinsta) of Business Air Services said his clients will ,not -use the airport if the hydro lines'ipre constructed. Therefore, the lines will af- fect both the airport and the econotny of Goderich, he said. He told Ontario Hydro representative Glen Hoglund that his company would be looking for compensation that would make the $13 million extra cost for t he Seaforth route look cheap."
