Grand Trunk Ry.—The G.T.R. Victoria Bridge, Montréal, was closed to vehicular traffic between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m., from Aug. 22 to Sept. 10, to allow a sheet of asphalt to be laid on the highway portion for protection against fire.

The company is reported to be replacing all wooden bridges in Hamilton, Ont., east of James St., with permanent structures of concrete and steel. One of them is under construction at the Macnab St. cutting on Stuart St., and preparations are going on for putting in a steel superstructure at the crossing of Hughson St.
