The brldgewould replace a ferry service which now_ operates be- tween the two ‘oolnts ln summer only. It was estimated the bridge avail cost approximately $6.000.-

Campbellton is the connecting rail llnk with the markets for pro- ducts from Bonaventure anrl Gaspe Counties in Quebec anrl from the Madswaska and Rcstlgoucho ' Counties ln New Brunswick.

The bridge. which would span theRestlgouche River, would fa- cilitate the movement of products to market. It would remove the hazards of winter crossing on the Ice and would do away with the interruptions in cervics caused by the spring breakup.
