EEPOET MINISTER OF PUBLIC WORKS OF THE PROVINCE OF BRITISH COLUMBIA FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 1924-25 PRINTED BY AUTHORITY OF THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY. VICTORIA, B.C.: Printed by Charles F. Banfield, Printer to the King's Most Excellent Majesty. 1925. > 53 0, Qfl t-.be 033 M Or 02 r 333 To His Honour Walter Cameron Nichol., Lieutenant-Governor of the Province of British Columbia. May it please Your Honour: Herewith. I beg respectfully to submit the Annual Report of my Department for the fiscal year ended March Slst, 1925, in compliance with the provisions of the " Public Works Act." W. H. SUTHERLAND, Minister of Public Works. Department of Public Works, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C., October 1st, 1925. PUBLIC WORKS REPORT. REPORT OF THE DEPUTY MINISTER AND PUBLIC WORKS ENGINEER. Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C., July 2nd, 1925. Hon. W. H. Sutherland, M.D., Minister of Puulie Works, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I have the honour to submit my report for the fiscal year 1924-25. Organization and Labour. Consequent upon the resignation of the District Engineer at Kamloops several changes were necessary. District Engineer Taylor was transferred from Prince Rupert to Kamloops and District Engineer Mackay from 150-Mile House to Prince Rupert. E. S. Jones, Assistant District Engineer, Vernon, was appointed District Engineer at 150-Mile House. R. Lowe, Assistant District Engineer was transferred from Lillooet to Vanderhoof (in which district there is considerable work necessitating the services of an Engineer) and O. G. Gallaher was appointed in his place. Other appointments were that of H. W. Stevens as Assistant District Engineer at Golden, in room of G. C. Tassie, transferred to Vernon. Labour-supply was plentiful and the employment of our day-labour forces throughout the Province appeared to have given all-round satisfaction. To take care of the unemployment situation during the winter mouths suitable relief-work was undertaken at various centres. Roads .and Trails. Whilst this year did not set any new records either as to the extent or nature of individual projects, the aggregate accomplishments have been very creditable. In addition to 250 miles of new trails, over SCO miles of roads of various types were added to the highway mileage, now approximating 17,000 miles. The extension of many of the main trunk highways again formed a large part of the year's programme. An outstanding event was the awarding of contracts for the construction, of the major portion of the Fraser-Canyon section of the Old Cariboo Road. Although comparatively little construction-work was done during the fiscal year, considerable preparatory work was undertaken, both in relocating the highway and in organizing construction camps. With a view to having the highway constructed, on the best possible alignment within the maximum grade of 8 per cent., the combined skill and experience of registered professional civil engineers have been concentrated upon this great highway undertaking. I have personally given this highly important matter a large proportion of my time and attention. In order that this highway may be open for traffic as far as Lytton by the summer of 1926, there were constructed by day-labour 2 miles at Hope and Lytton and 1 mile north of Cheam View. Work was commenced by contract on a most necessary diversion (1.2 miles) at Jones Hill, 'between Hope and Rosedale. As a relief measure during the winter considerable reconstruction-work was also undertaken by day-labour between Hope and Rosedale. The Cariboo Road, which links up with the Fraser Canyon section of this great trunk highway, was extended several miles between Quesnel and Fort George. Several stretches of this section were also reconstructed on improved locations and other portions widened and gravel-surfaced. Similar reconstruction and improvement works were undertaken on the Fort George- Hazelton Highway. On the southern route of the Trans-Provincial Highway the following work was satisfactorily carried out all by day-labour:— Construction of 2-mile diversion at Genelle, between Trail and Castlegar; extension of macadamizing near Creston; reconstruction of 2-mile diversion between Cranbrook and Goatfell; reconstruction at Hairpin Bend, west of Fernie; and widening, etc., at Crowsnest Pass (relief- work). In addition, several miles of this highway throughout the Province were gravel- surfaced. Q 6 Public Works Report (1924-25). On the northern route of the Trans-Provincial Highway several diversions and widenings were successfully undertaken by day-labour between Kamloops and Salmon Arm and between Kamloops and Vernon. Particularly contiguous to those cities an endeavour was made to improve the standard of highway by widening, straightening, and regrading, to the apparent approval of the municipal authorities in particular and the motoring public in general. The construction of several other important trunk highways was advanced. On the Edgewood-Vernon Road 10M, miles of heavy construction-work between Inonoaklin Crossing and Kettle River were satisfactorily carried out by contract. With the construction by day-labour of other 2 miles of the highway between Slocan and Silverton, these towns now wholly dependent on boat service were brought nearer each other. The clearing, by contract, of 4.5 miles of the right-of-way of the Nelson-Kaslo Highway between Queen's Bay and Ainsworth brought this highway nearer completion. The Big Bend Road north of Revelstoke was continued another mile and an additional 4 miles of the right-of-way were slashed. The highway connecting Golden and the west boundary of Yoho Park, now being developed by the Canadian National Park authorities, was continued by contract another 4 miles. To eliminate prohibitive grades, etc., on the Nelson-United States Boundary Highway 2.13 miles of a diversion near Ymir were constructed by contract. An important cut-off at Brookmere, in the Otter Valley, was started by day-labour. The construction of a section of highway between the old wharf, reconstructed by the Dominion Government at Bella Coola, and the 4-Mile Bridge (5.24 miles) was commenced by contract. In order to afford a highway outlet from Prince Rupert, considerable clearing was undertaken by day-labour on the Kaien Island Highway. The road from Fort George to Gisconibe and the McBride-Dunster Road were extended by day-labour. Ou the Morris Valley Road 1.77 miles of new construction were undertaken. The Harrison Mills-Agassiz Highway was extended 0.6 mile by day-labour, the bulk of the work comprising heavy side-hill rock excavation. New construction-work on Vancouver Island comprised extensions of the Hardy Bay-Coal Harbour Road, the Tofino-Ucluelet Road, and the reconstruction of portions of the Island Highway 'between Parksville and Qualicum. In constructing or reconstructing all such trunk highways the Department did not lose sight of its policy to build roads for Iwna-fide settlers. Settlers' roads chiefly comprised- the following: Colleymont Road (2.50 miles), Lone Butte-Bridge Lake (12 miles), Port Clemens-Tlell (2 miles), Wardner-Casey (5 miles), and numerous short roads in the Peace River District. The sleigh-road constructed for 142 miles between Fort St. John and the Nelson River proved of immense benefit to settlers and traders in this district. To cope with mining development, particularly in the northern areas, many mining roads were either constructed or reconstructed. Chief amongst the mining roads so benefited were Alice Arm Shore Road, Dunwell Mines Road, Telegraph Creek-Dease Lake Road, Salmon River Road, and Bear River Road. Owing to the industrial expansion at Kimberley considerable street construction and improvement works were imperative. Classified Highways. In conjunction with the municipalities the following construction and reconstruction works were undertaken:— Dewdney Trunk Road (Coquitlam).—3.75 miles of asphaltic macadam (5-inch) 10 to 17 feet in width. Scott Road (Delta and Surrey).—New Westminster Bridge South (0.67 mile) and Newton Road North (0.47 mile), pienetration macadam 16 feet wide. Boundary Bay Road (Delta).—Parmiter Road to Morley Road (0.85 mile), asphalt macadam. Hastings-Barnet Road (Burnaog).—At the gravel bluffs near Barnet 1.5 miles were reconstructed and gravelled. Fraser Street (South Vancouver).—Thirty-fourth Avenue to Fifty-ninth Avenue (east side only), 1.5 miles; Fifty-ninth Avenue to Riverway (west side only), 0.5 mile; total 2 miles 7-inch cement concrete 12 feet in width. West Saanich Road (Saanich, V.I.).—Continuation for other 2 miles of the bituminous macadam. Main Street, etc. (City of Armstrong).—Near C.P.R. Depot (0.34 mile), 7-inch cement concrete 18 feet wide. (The only other hard-surfacing work done this year in addition to the above 15 Geo. 5 Report of Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer. Q 7 10.08 miles was on the loco-Port Moody Highway outside of any incorporated district. To accommodate the greatly increased motor traffic to the industrial townsite at loco commencement was made on the surfacing with asphalt macadam (5-inch), 13 feet wide, of this 2.50-mile stretch.) During the year 0.52 mile of primary highways and 2.S8 miles of secondary highways were classified, bringing the total up to 114.38 miles of primary and 189.99 miles of secondary highways. Maintenance .and Improvement. Road improvements comprising widening, straightening, and surfacing of existing highways occupied the major portion of the activities of the Provincial day-labour gangs. With the aid of trucks and tractors a large mileage of roads throughout the Province were gravel-surfaced, thus fitting them better to withstand the intensive wear and tear of the greatly increased motortruck traffic. The tendency of the tourist traffic, of which there was a marked increase in the summer of 1924, is to deviate to our lateral roads either for the purpose of getting away from crowded highways or to explore our varied scenery. This has involved the improvement and surfacing of lateral roads. Amongst the maintenance undertakings special mention should be made of the excellent work done on Vancouver Island towards conserving the gravel-surfacing from the heavy inroads of heavy jitney traffic. Altogether 18 miles of bituminous treatment were undertaken on the Malahat Drive and Colwood Road, at an average cost of 12 cents per square yard of 16-foot width. Portion of the East Saanich Road near Sidney was surfaced 16 feet wide with 6 inches of crushed rock and treated with tarvia. Bridges. Continuing its policy of replacing timber structures on important highways by modern steel structures, the Department completed three large bridges during the year. Following are details of these structures :— Revelstoke Bridge over Columbia River, Revelstoke.— (Total length, 1,140 feet) Steel superstructure consisting of four 154-foot spans; two 212-foot 3-inch spans; roadway, 14 feet 8 inches wide (asphaltic concrete surface) ; sidewalk, 5 feet. Substructure: Twin steel cylinder piers under span over main channel. Remainder of piers on plain concrete; approaches, 85 lineal feet trestle. Kamloops Bridge over the Thompson River, Kamloops.— (Total length, 1,036 feet.) Steel superstructure consisting of three 212-foot 4-inch spans; two 154-foot spans; roadway, 16 feet wide (asphaltic concrete surface) ; sidewalk, 5 feet wide. Substructure: Plain concrete piers; approaches, 80 lineal feet timber trestle. Terrace Bridge over Skeena River at Terrace.— (Total length, 1,340 feet. Steel superstructure consisting of one 250-foot span; one 163-foot deck span; two 140-foot deck spans; two 90-foot deck spans; roadway, 10 feet wide. Substructure: Plain concrete piers; approaches, 460 lineal feet timber trestle. Commencement was also made on the construction of a combined steel and timber structure . over the Fraser River at Eburne to replace the existing bridges, which were inadequate to withstand the heavy traffic developing between the Mainland and Lulu Island. A marked feature of the timber bridge construction was the number of important bridges very satisfactorily and economically undertaken by day-labour forces under efficient supervision. Chief amongst such day-labour undertakings are the following: Chernainus River, 120-foot Howe truss, pile piers; Haslam Creek, 110-foot Howe truss, concrete abutments; McBride (Fraser River), one 130-foot and two 100-foot Howe trusses, pile piers; Yahk (Moyie River), 90-foot Howe truss, pile piers; Telkwa (Telkwa River), two 100-foot Howe trusses, concrete piers; Baxter ('Shuswap River), 120-foot Plowe truss, pile piers, and 60-foot king truss; Loop (Fernie), 120-foot Howe truss, concrete piers; Eddy's (Fernie), 100-foot Howe truss, concrete piers. Maintenance, particularly of the decking of timber bridges, still forms a large part of our day-labour programme. Wherever practicable timber bridges are replaced with permanent culverts and fills. Most of the bridge renewals are built on concrete piers capable of carrying steel structures when conditions justify same. To withstand the strain and impact of swiftly- moving motor traffic, and also to prolong the life of hundreds of bridges, three or four planks have been laid lengthwise at each wheel-track. An important improvement was undertaken by day-labour on the Fraser River Bridge at Hope. The highway deck was refloored with 4- by 6-inch timbers on edge and flush-coated with Tarvia " B." Ferries. New ferries were installed over the Fraser River at Quesnel (10-ton standard ferry) and at Isle de Pierre (Nechako River) the scow ferry was replaced with a more modern pontoon. The heavy traffic using the Mill Bay Ferry has fully justified the expense of providing the ferry- landings for the .accommodation of the private boat operating under a Provincial charter. Commencement was made on the construction of landings and approaches thereto of a ferry over the West Arm of the Kootenay Lake, 14 miles from Nelson. River-bank Protection. Beyond minor works necessary to protect bridge approaches, the Department has not undertaken much work of this nature during the past two years. Some work was done this year at Natal to confine Michel Creek within safe limits, and substantial protection, cribbing was constructed at West Fernie. General. Fuller details of the various works accomplished by this Department are provided in the reports of the district officials and the Supervising Architect. It is a pleasure to again place on record the splendid assistance so willingly afforded me by every member of the indoor and outdoor staffs in the discharge of my many duties. In conclusion I take this opportunity of referring to J. E. Griffith (now Deputy Minister and Chief Engineer of Railways) for his unfailing courtesy and advice in solving many executive problems; to John Peck, Chief Inspector of Steam-boilers and Machinery (the administration of whose branch was transferred to the Workmen's Compensation Board), for his advice and assistance in various mechanical matters; and to James Muirhead (who has taken up private practice as a consulting electrical engineer), for his capable management of the electrical branch of the Department. Permit me to place on record the co-operative assistance and excellent advice so freely and generously afforded me by yourself on every occasion, concerning the better discharge of my duties both in an executive and an administrative capacity. Such whole-hearted co-operation, as yours has always been, has rendered my duties lighter, pleasanter, and more profitable. All of which is respectfully submitted. P. Philip, Deputy Minister and Puljlio Works Engineer. ENGINEERING DISTRICT No. 1. (Note.—There is no District Engineer for this Engineering District. Assistants report direct to Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer.) Report of P. J. Campbell, General Foreman for the Islands and Saanich Electoral Districts. Islands District Roads.—Improvement and reconstruction: Owing to the ever-increasing volume of traffic the main objective during the year was to improve and reconstruct gravel and earth roads. Several miles of gravel roads were regraded and surfaced with crushed rock for a minimum width of 16 feet and a depth of 6 inches. The whole was thoroughly rolled and finally treated with two coats of tarvia and granite screenings. Five miles of earth roads were partially regraded and surfaced with 4 inches of crushed rock. Construction: Four miles of new roads were constructed for settlers throughout the district. . ■ 15 Geo. 5 Engineering District No. 1. Q 9 Maintenance: About 300 miles of roads were maintained in the district during the year, and in some sections patrol gangs were constantly engaged. The severe frost during the winter did considerable damage to the roads where logging and cordwood gangs were operating, but by curtailing operations a large saving in repairs was effected. Saanich District.—Several roads in the district were gravelled and ditched and treated with asphaltic oil. The road to the Dominion, Astrophysical Observatory was regraded and gravelled and a heavy coating of asphaltic oil sprayed, under pressure, over the entire length. This road withstood the heavy traffic and winter conditions splendidly. Two more miles of bituminous paving were laid on the West Saanich Road (a secondary highway) 'by the Municipal Works Department and 50 per cent, of the cost was borne by this Department. Bridges.—A few renewals and general repairs were done during the season. Ferries.—The Mill Bay and Brentwood ferry-landings were built and the ferry started operating about the end of September, 1924. This ferry gives an all-year-round service between Victoria and up-Island points, doing away with the necessity of travelling over the Malahat Drive during the winter months. Report of C. A. Helgesen, General Foreman, Esquimalt District. Roads and Trails.—Construction: The following new roads were completed during the year: Esquimalt Lagoon extension, % mile along Lagoon Spit, to afford the general public access thereto. Whiffen Spit Road: This road, commenced last year, was completed and surfaced with gravel this year and has given general satisfaction. Fitzgerald Cut-off: Approximately 0.9 mile of new road has been cleared and partly graded. When completed this road will be a boon to the general public, as it cuts out three dangerous hills on the Summit Road to Shawnigan Lake. Reconstruction: Eight miles of main road, including heavily travelled sections on Colwood, Sooke, and Metchosin Roads, were tarviated, and 9 miles of Malahat Drive treated with liquid asphalt. This work has stood the wet season exceptionally well and has drawn favourable comment from all users of the roads. Maintenance and repairs: On main and trunk roads heavy traffic has greatly increased over last year, making it very difficult to keep gravelled roads in good condition with funds available. Only increased use of good mechanical equipment has made possible the uniformly good condition of roads generally throughout the district. Bridges.—During the past year sixteen bridges have been reconstructed and thirty-five repaired. Wherever possible bridges have been replaced with permanent fills. In all new work special attention has been paid to relocation with a view to improvement of existing grades and curves in approaches. Report of H. C. Mann, Assistant District Engineer, Cowichan and Newcastle Districts. Govrichan District.—The roads in this district were maintained in good condition during the year, but unfortunately in some places the stock of suitable road material is becoming scarce. The Island Highway, due perhaps to a long spell of dry weather' in the summer, was rough in many places, and this coming year the method of keeping, wherever possible, a thin coating of fine gravel over the road is being adopted, as well as dry-grading, which has given satisfactory ■ results, allowing of material beiug properly distributed on the surface of the road oefore a rainfall. This district has had its share of " extraordinary traffic," but little difficulty was experienced in controlling heavy haulage during the winter months. A new Howe-truss bridge was constructed across the Chernainus River near Westholme, the erection of which reflects much credit on the Bridge Foreman, under whose charge it was built. The bridges over Somenos Creek and the Macintosh Bridge, Sahtlam, were rebuilt. The bridges in this district have been maintained in good condition. The wooden sidewalk on Wilson's Hill-Island Highway, Duncan City, was reconstructed during the year and the Island Highway tarviated where it passes along Station Street, City of Duncan. Q 10 Public Works Report (1.924-25). The cribbing protecting the Island Highway at Cowichan .Bay was repaired in places during the year, but this cribbing as a whole will shortly require to be renewed. The question of widening the highway seawards will also require to be given consideration. Newcastle District.—The roads in this district are on the whole wider than in Cowichan District and consequently easier to maintain. In various places beach gravel is obtainable, and as it contains a certain percentage of lime and salt it is excellent material for use during the summer months on roads with little protection from the sun. On the Island Highway south of Ladysmith a stretch of asphalt was laid down in the summer, but this work suffered severely during the severe frost in December. Repairing with cold patch was resorted to last February and the results have been fairly satisfactory. Considerable work was done on the road to Nanaimo Lakes, the road having been widened in many places, ditched, and the surface graded. During the months of February and March considerable repairs to South Wellington Road were carried out, under a grant for the relief of the unemployed, and this road is now in good condition. A new Howe-truss bridge was constructed across Haslam Creek at Cassidy, below and alongside the E. & N. Railway Bridge. The old bridge some 400 yards down-stream is still in use, but only for light traffic. The roads and bridges in this district have been maintained in good condition during the year. In conclusion, I would like to place on record the good service rendered by the foremen and the workmen, the majority of whom were returned soldiers. Report of W. P. Beavan, Assistant District Engineer for Comox Electoral District. Roads and Trails.—Construction-work was light, involving only about 6 miles of new work, all of which wrork was satisfactorily undertaken by day-labour. In this mileage the chief item was the grading (14 feet wide) of the Powell River-Myrtle Point Road to take care of the increasing settlement. In the Salmon River Valley about % mile of new roads were graded. The Hardy Bay-Coal Harbour Road was extended 1% miles. The remainder of the new roads were to accommodate settlers on Valdes Island, Read Island, and elsewhere. Reconstruction-work embraced the regrading and gravelling (15 feet wide) of 0.4 mile of the Cumberland-Comox Lake Road and the reconstruction of % mile of the main road on Texada Island. Maintenance-work featured largely in the year's programme, no less than 342 miles of road having been generally repaired, widened, ditched, gravelled, or otherwise materially improved. Approximately $1,000 was spent on improving classified highways in conjunction with the municipalities. 'Considering the large mileage of roads (459 miles) to maintain and the greatly increased use of motor-vehicles, even in outlying districts and on the islands, the amount of improvement-work accomplished on the roads is very creditable with the comparatively limited funds at disposal. The enormous increase in motor traffic on the Island Highway between Parksville and Campbell River calls for a very much larger expenditure on this much-travelled road to make it more serviceable for motor-vehicles of all descriptions. This applies particularly to the Campbell River section. Bridges.—The 50-foot king truss with trestle approach at Wolfson Creek was the only new bridge of importance constructed. Bridges renewed included a 45-foot king truss at China Creek and 50-foot king trusses at Rosewall and the third crossing of Salmon River respectively. Five trestle bridges were reconstructed. All the bridges were kept in good state of repair, chiefly renewal of decking due to the wear and tear of rapid motor-vehicle traffic. Over $4,000 has been spent on general repairs and protection-works. General.—Over thirty subdivisions were inspected for approval and a large number of applications for permits for logging-railways crossing highways, pole-lines, etc., were investigated. Following the resignation of O. W. Smith, whose resignation was regretfully accepted by the Department, I was transferred from the .Alberni District in September last. I cannot, therefore, report so fully as I could have done had I been in charge throughout the entire fiscal year. I take this opportunity of recording the assistance rendered me by the local foremen and others under my supervision. The officials at headquarters extended to me the usual support and encouragement.

Substructure done by day-labour ; superstructure done by contract. ^^H 15 Geo. 5 Engineering District No. 1. Q 11 Report of H. M. Bigwood, Assistant District Engineer for Alberni District. Roads and Trails.—Generally the year was favourable so far as weather conditions were concerned, the most trying time being in December, when heavy frosts on ground unprotected by snow were responsible for some inconvenience and damage during the period of thawing out. However, traffic was maintained in all sections, including the Alberni Summit. Considerable improvement, in the form of widening and straightening, was done on the Island Highway between Parksville and Qualicum, leaving the portion north from Qualicum Beach still to be improved. Construction-work on Palmer Road, No. 224; Kaye Road, No. 221; and Jenkins Road, No. 187, provided access for settlers farming along those routes and the benefit is appreciated. Preliminary work, clearing, and ditching done on the road near Parksville School has resulted in providing good conditions for subsequent construction. A further mileage of construction on the road to link Tofino with Ucluelet, consisting of clearing and grading, was carried out during the summer and leaves a balance of approximately 6 miles still to be done. Gravelling and ditching on past years' construction was carried on and after another season's work in this manner a road suitable for travel at any time will be available between Ucluelet and Long Beach, which will encourage tourists to holiday adjacent to its wonderful beach, consisting of 14 miles of hard sand over which an automobile may be driven. The remaining section of this road, Long Beach to Tofino, consists of 6 miles of the hardest kind of construction, but with the base of supplies established at Tofino, 2% miles from the initial point for construction, it is hoped that clearing may be completed this season, and also a considerable portion graded. Traffic.—Year by year the volume, speed, and weight of traffic using the roads increase and many roads are too narrow and tortuous for comfort and safety. Logging operations along highways cause considerable additional expense for maintenance and the difficulty of regulating them without hampering private enterprise is considerable. Bridges.—Twenty-four bridges were reconstructed during the year, and on those situated on main highways, such as Island Highway and Canadian Highway, deck-planks were laid longitudinally with the traffic. Where this has been done the improved surface is very noticeable and often remarked upon. No large bridges were constructed during the year. Eighty structures were dealt, with in the way of maintenance, the work consisting of repairing substructures and repairing decks. At Bridge No. 23, French Creek, 550 loads of rock were placed round piers and at toe of approach fills as safeguard from erosion. The river is continually cutting its north bank just above the bridge. Buildings.—Alterations to accommodate larger trucks were made to buildings which were originally built for horses and wagons. Railway Crossings.—A new crossing over the E. & N. Railway Company's tracks at Superior Road, Mile 82.4, was constructed. Work has been commenced laying steel on the Central Lake Branch of the E. & N. Railway, thus adding five more crossings to the list. Heavier traffic is anticipated on the Central Lake Road, No. 10, due to the construction of a mill which is proceeding at the lake. REPORT OF ENGINEER, DISTRICT No. 2. District Engineer's Office, Court-house, New Westminster, B.C., July 18th, 1925. P. Philip, Esq., Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I beg to submit herewith annual report of work done in the above district during the fiscal year 1924-25. Burnaby District.—Hastings-Barnet Road: The chief work undertaken duriug the year in this district consisted of the reconstruction of the Hastings-Barnet Road. Approximately 1.5 miles of this highway at the big bluffs were reconstructed and gravelled. The work was of a heavy nature, as the old road along the bluffs was very narrow and had a number of dangerous turns. The cost was approximately $16,000, and this expenditure has been quite justified, by the use that has been made of this highway by the traffic from the north side of the Fraser Valley as far east as Mission and westerly to Vancouver, thus relieving the congestion which existed between Port Coquitlam and Vancouver via Westminster. This highway has considerable merit from a scenic point of view, and it is reasonable to suppose that within a short time it will increase in importance as a main trunk road leading to Vancouver. Relief-work: To provide relief for the unemployed, work was undertaken, where possible, during the winter months throughout the district. On the Hastings-Barnet Road those portions not already improved during the summer were widened to 24 feet for a distance of approximately 4 miles. On this fifty men were employed for about two months at standard wages. About 200 men were employed for a period of six weeks clearing Government land near Oakalla Prison Farm. A section of storm-sewer on Kingsway was reconstructed, the old wooden box having been pulled up and replaced with vitrified-clay pipe. Chilliwack District.—No new construction-work was carried out on roads in this district during the fiscal year. Trans-Provincial Highway: This highway was widened in many places where the road was too narrow for the existing traffic. The drainage was improved and a number of old timber culverts removed and replaced with metal pipe. Approximately 16,000 cubic yards of gravel were used for repairing the roads. Columbia Valley Road: This road was widened from the main highway to Cultus Lake, a distance of 1% miles, Cultus Lake has recently been opened up as a summer resort and the traffic is very heavy in this district during the summer months. River-bank Protection: No additional work was carried out on the Vedder river-bank protection. The December freshet was very heavy, bringing down more timber than has been experienced for some years. Numerous log-jams were formed in the river. The wing-walls constructed last year proved very satisfactory. In most cases the silt and gravel washed down by the river has been held, forming bars that are now protecting the previously scioured-out sections of the river-bank. Approximately 100 cubic yards of rock were torn out of the rock wall by large drift-logs during the high-water period. Bridges: The Vedder Oanal pile-trestle bridge, 1,220 feet in length, including two 150-foot Howe trusses, was constructed and completed by contract during the month of March. Very little maintenance was required to the bridges in this district. Ferries: The Agassiz-Rosedale Ferry " Sea Wolf" still continues to render excellent service, meeting all public demands. New protection-piles were driven at both landings, replacing the old piles, which were dangerous owing to their rotten condition. Delta District.—The major works carried out during the year were as follows:— Boundary Bay Road (40b), Asphaltic Macadam Paving: In the section of the Boundary Bay Road which runs from Parmiter Road to Morley Road, a distance of 0.85 mile. Base: The old macadam base, 10 feet wide, was scarified and spread to a width of 16 feet and flushed with a liquid asphalt binder, % gallon per square yard. The old metal was then covered with a - ' lu'vi.y. .'iv J":-*-' * Yahk Bridge, 90-foot Howe-truss span. Built by contract, February 21st, 1925. Vedder Canal Bridge, Sumas Reclaimed Area, Chilliwack District Two 150-foot Howe-truss spans. 15 Geo. 5 Report op Engineer, District No. 2. Q 13 run-of-bank gravel for a consolidated thickness of 2i^ inches and the surface flushed with asphaltic binder, 1 gallon per square yard. Top: Washed screened gravel varying in size from -M-h to 2% inches was added and compacted 2% inches in depth and flushed with asphalt, 1% gallons per square yard. The surface voids were filled with crushed gravel, % to % inch, rolled and flushed with a layer of stone chips and coarse sand. This paving has proved quite satisfactory up to the present time. Scott Road (18b), Asphalt Penetration: Two sections of the Scott Road were paved 16 feet wide; one section from the Newton Road north 0.47; the other, New Westminster Bridge, south 0.67 mile. The existing rock and gravel base was scarified and flushed with a liquid asphalt binder, % gallon per square yard. This was covered with screened gravel to a compacted depth of 2% to 3 inches, flushed with an asphaltic binder, 1 gallon per square yard, and blinded with stone chips. Trans-Provincial Highway, South Approach, New Westminster Bridge: The highway approach under the Canadian National Railway has been greatly improved by constructing an additional 26-foot span, which divides the highway into two openings through the trestle. This provides one for the north-bound and one for the south-bound traffic, greatly reducing the dangerous condition, previously existing at this point, where heretofore both north- and southbound traffic had to use the one opening through the trestle. General: The maintenance of the gravel roads on the Trans-Provincial Highway required more attention owing to the increased motor traffic. Grading operations were carried out diligently, especially during the dry summer months. The roads were kept in good condition throughout the year. Bridges: The Canoe Pass Bridge was reconstructed owing to the scouring-out of the riverbed. Three piers and two Howe trusses, 100 feet and 120 feet in length, wrere rendered unsafe. These were replaced by locating a new foundation for the piers and erecting 120-foot and 160- foot Howe-truss spans. Two of the new piers (B and C) constructed consisted of a cluster of seventy-five piles in each pier, each line of piles braced by 6- by 8-ineh timber, making a solid platform on top of the pier. The piles were 110 feet in length with 34 to 40 feet penetration; average diameter of piles at cut-off being 20 inches. The whole pier above low water was timber-sheeted and the pier-noses covered with sheet iron. Owing to the river being tidal at the bridge crossing the ice-flow is carried both up and down channel, at times subjecting the piers to terrific strain. Last winter at one stage of the tide the ice piled up from bank to bank, nearly 10 feet high. Careful watch was kept and we are now satisfied that this type of pile-pier construction is amply justified on the grounds of strength and economy of first cost. Dewdney District.—The major works carried out during the year were.as follows:— Dewdney Trunk Road, No. 2, Paving: This section of the Dewdney Trunk runs from Westminster City limits to Port Coquitlam City. A total length of 3.75 miles was paved with asphaltic macadam (penetration) 5 inches thick, 16 to 17 feet wide. This new pavement replaced an old worn-out macadam surface, which was found impossible to repair economically with any degree of success. Traffic statistics show that this highway has become more and more important as a trunk road leading to Vancouver and at present accommodates a heavy car and truck traffic. As the contract for this work carries a five-year guarantee, the Province will be relieved from the heavy maintenance expenditures on this road for that period of time. loco-Port Moody Road, Paving: The increasing importance of the town of loco as an industrial centre made it imperative that steps be taken, to provide adequate highway connection. As a start towards this objective, 1 mile only of this road, 'which is 3.5 miles long, was paved this year with asphaltic macadam (penetration) 5 inches thick, 12 to 13 feet wide. The remaining 2.5 miles will be paved in 1925-26. Dewdney Trunk, No. 7, Widening: Two miles of this road, from the east boundary of Municipality of Mission to Dewdney Station, are on a dyke. This embankment, which only averaged about 12 feet wide on top, wTas widened to 24 feet and regravelled. A P. & H. shovel was used in making the new embankment. Relief-work: Considerable work was done by relief gangs in widening roads during the winter months, the most important of which was on the Dewdney Trunk in Port Moody City, the River Road near Whonnock, and the Salvaster Road north of Hatzic. Q 14 Public Works Report (1924-25). River-bank Protection, South Lillooet: Two bad " S " bends in this river were straightened out by digging new channels with a P. & H. drag-line hired from the Dykes Department. The new channels have worked satisfactorily and are giving the relief hoped for. Ferries: The Mission-Matsqui Ferry has given good service. During the cold spell in winter the ferry was not operated owing to floating ice in the Fraser. The ferry-boat itself was completely overhauled this spring-. General: The usual maintenance was carried out this year. The roads were all kept in good condition. A little trouble was experienced when the frost was coming out of the ground. No doubt more trouble would have been experienced had not the traffic regulations been strictly enforced. Extensive regravelling of the Salvaster and River Roads has been done. Bridges: In general, the bridges are in good condition and no great amount has been spent on them this year. Lampart Bridge, 340 feet long, was reconstructed. Surveys: A new highway has been located between Deroche and Harrison Bay. New Westminster District.—District Lot 172: The River Road in District Lot 172 was flush-coated with a light coat of Tarvia " X." Considerable ditching was done on most of the streets and other general repairs were carried out. North Approach, New Westminster Bridge: The steep earth side-hill slope of the approach has been sloughing in after the frost and rainy season each year, and it was found necessary to eliminate this trouble by cribbing the part affected. The cribbing is of 8- by 10-inch timbers, held in place by cross-ties spaced 8 feet apart. The cribbing is 11 feet maximum height and 2C0 feet long. North Vancouver District.—General: During the past year nothing of outstanding interest occurred in the matter of construction. Our efforts were confined to maintaining the roads, in so far as funds would permit. It was found necessary, during the heavy frosts of last season, to limit the traffic in the Gibson-Sechelt and Squamish section to light grocery delivery-rigs and the mails. In his report to me General Foreman Wylie frankly expresses his opinion as follows: " As this district is wholly a ward of the Government, I am of the opinion that the Department does not spend enough within its own confines, considering the amounts given to the municipalities. The people living in these unorganized districts are getting all modern appliances, autos and trucks, and that being the case money must be spent in the matter of main highways and trunk roads in order that these settlers may get around amongst each other, as the people living within the richer areas are able to do. I have always felt that too many people are crowding into the cities, and having presentable roads made for settlers is, to my mind, money well spent, as it will make the settlers more contented, prevent their return to the crowded cities, and also encourage other settlers to go on the land. " rtAs I have now left this district, I will be only too pleased to give any desired information to my successor, aud I trust that Mr. Gallaher will have success in the district, that all settlers may be treated fairly, and that no complaints will reach the Department. " There is only one thing that his attention should be called to—namely, that very often heavy frosts occur in the Gibson-'Sechelt and Squamish Districts, and in order to protect the roads all traffic other than the mails and light grocery delivery-rigs should be completely barred from off these roads during the thaw. Notices should be given in the fall of the year, so that the travelling public may be prepared. The damage done to roads during thaws by heavy motors or wagons i's immense, much more so in the districts mentioned owing to many of the roads being on clay bottom.." Richmond District,—The most important work undertaken in this district during the year consisted of the paving of Tenth Avenue from Blanca Street to the University grounds, together with such other street-work considered necessary to the development of one unit of the new residential district at University Hill. For the purpose of developing this unit as a residential area all public utilities were provided—i.e., sewer and water connections, light and telephone, and gas. Marine Drive: Two portions of this highway which were threatened by undermining, owing to erosion of the cliffs from storm conditions, had to be reconstructed on new locations and moved back some distance from the cliffs Both these new portions of Marine Drive improved greatly the general alignment and grades. . Salmon River Bridge, near Ymir, 60-foot king-truss span. Subway at east end of Fraser River Bridge, New Westminster, Delta District. 15 Geo. 5 Report of Engineer, District No. 2. Q 15 Eburne Bridge: By reason of constant care and maintenance in the way of repairs these bridges came through the ice-flow of last winter fairly well, but the proposed new bridges are urgently required to take care of the situation. Ladner-Woodward Ferry: This ferry has lost very little time due to ice conditions in the river, but owing to the silting-up of the Ladner Channel considerable difficulty was experienced in maintaining the schedule. No time should be lost in considering the best method to be followed in providing transportation for the increasing traffic between Ladner and Woodward's. The present ferry service cannot be increased without tremendous expenditure. A possible solution of the whole matter lies in building a road across the river-flats to a point opposite Woodward's where the channel is deep and where a more frequent ferry service could be operated. The possibility of bridging the channel is not out. of the question in years to come and considerable thought should be given during the coming year to this problem. Relief-work: During the distress of last winter about 325 men were provided with employment on clearing Government land at the University. South Vancouver District.—'Paving: The following pavements were laid during the .year: Fraser Street from Thirty-fourth Avenue to Marine Drive (Riverway), on the east side from Thirty-fourth Avenue to Fifty-ninth Avenue, 7-inch concrete pavement 12 feet wide, with integral curb, and on west side from Fifty-ninth Avenue to Marine Drive (Riverway), 7-inch concrete pavement 18 feet wide, with integral curb. The former stretch is approximately iy2 miles long and the latter % mile long. Yale District.—In the portion of Yale District (No. 3) placed under our supervision the new construction-work carried out is as follows:— Fraser Canyon Highway: From the Hope Bridge east to the Canadian Pacific Railway, a distance of 0.4 mile, cleared 66 feet wide and the road-bed (graded) 20 feet wide. This included heavy rock-work and eliminated an extremely dangerous curve and heavy grade. The new road has a maximum grade of 3 per cent. Hope-Rosedale Road: One mile constructed and gravelled from Cheam View north. Morris Valley Road: A length of 1.77 miles of road was constructed, width 12 feet, cleared 30 feet wide. Harrison Mills to Agassiz: Considerable surveying was necessary to locate a road between these points over the mountain. Six-tenths of a mile of road were constructed. Heavy side-hill rock-work was encountered from the Agassiz Dam to the summit of the Canadian Pacific Raihyay tunnel. A 10-per-cent. grade had to be used to get over the summit. Relief-work, Hope-Rosedale Road: Extensive revision was carried out on the location for the new highway and relief-work was carried on for three months, from January 1st to March 31st. Four camps were built to accommodate 100 men in each camp and were located at Popkum, Cheam View, Laidlaw, and Silver Creek, and 300 to 400 men were employed during the relief-work period. Most of the men were adaptable to this kind of work and very good results were obtained, although bad weather, which somewhat retarded progress, was experienced for the first six weeks. The greater part of the work consisted of heavy clearing and stumping. Other sections of the road were drained and some grading was done. The following is a summary of work done: Clearing, 9.8 miles, 60.35 acres; grubbing, 3.6 miles, 11.5 acres; ditching, 1.25 miles, 1,181 cubic yards; grading, 1.2 miles. Material moved: Earth, 3,542 cubic yards; loose rock, 447 cubic yards ; solid rock, 705 cubic yards. Several timber culverts were built. Hope-Yale Section, Relief-work: Clearing, 0.6 mile, 5.3 acres; grubbing, 2.4 acres; grading, 130 cubic yards solid rock; 1,800 lineal feet of timber cut and hauled.to bridge-sites. Bridges: The Hope Bridge (combined railway and highway) was refloored with 4- by 6-inch timber placed on edge and flush-coated with Tarvia " B." The north approach of bridge was raised and reconstructed to eliminate a dangerous grade. General repairs were carried out to many bridges in this district. All of which is respectfully submitted. E. H. Veknee, District Engineer. Q 16 Public Works Report (1924-25). REPORT OF ENGINEER, DISTRICT No. 3. District Engineer's Office, Kamloops, B.C., August Uth, 1925. P. Philip, Esq., Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer, Victoria, B.C. Sib,—I beg to submit annual report for District No. 3 for the fiscal year 1924-25. Roads.—Maintenance-work was carried out on all roads in the district. The sudden thaw in the spring caused some slight damage and made the expenditure on this work higher than usual. During the season considerable work was done in widening and gravelling main roads and in diversions for the improvement of same. Work of this nature was done on the Kamloops- Salmon Arm Road, Kamloops-Merritt Road, North Thompson East Side and North Thompson West Side Roads. The increased use of road machinery is of great benefit in large districts. The cost of doing road-work with machinery is slightly lower, but the greatest benefit is in the saving of time. In maintenance-work on main roads the use of two tractors and two graders has been found to work very well, one trip over the road doing the necessary spring maintenance-work. Settlers' roads received considerable attention, and this has become more necessary as it is found that local tourists are travelling much more on side-roads than formerly. Roads such as Fish Lake Road and Paul Lake Road, out of Kamloops, have as heavy motor traffic in the summer season as the main roads. Timber culverts have been renewed or replaced with pipe, as it has been found that timber culverts are not suitable to stand heavy motor traffic. When the motor traffic warrants it, it has been found more economical, although the first cost is greater, to replace timber culverts with metal pipe. Trails.—The mileage of trails is small, but work was done on most of them, particularly those to mining properties. Bridges.—The chief bridge-work done was the completion of the Kamloops West Bridge, a steel and concrete structure, with paved deck, and the Middlesboro Bridge in Merritt, a composite Howe truss on concrete abutments. Considerable renewal work was done on small timber bridges, the life of which is short. A bridge-repair crew was kept going all summer. Ferries.—All ferries were maintained in good shape, and owing to the increased tie and pole industry on the North Thompson River several of the ferries were taxed to handle the traffic. General.—The chief road problems in this district are keeping the roads open in the winter during the period of heavy snowfall, especially on the summits between Kamloops and Merritt and Kamloops and Vernon. Some work was done last winter with tractor and snow-plough, but the expenditure was too great to continue the work after every snowfall. The other problem is the wearing of road surfaces in the long dry summer. The binding material gets dried out and ground into powder and is either sucked out by tires of motor- vehicles or blown away, leaving only the rock or gravel, which makes rough travelling and forms chuck-holes. Even on well-gravelled roads summer maintenance is necessary, but not very satisfactory, and the only solution is a binder such as tar or oil, which will remain in place during all seasons. Labour conditions were good and labour plentiful and competent. Helpful co-operation was received from the Department in Victoria and from all inspecting officials, also from other departments of the Government and from Federal officials. Local officials of the Department carried out their duties in a satisfactory manner with the purpose of giving as satisfactory a service to the public as finances will permit. All of which is respectfully submitted. R. M. Tayloe, District Engineer. . ■-■ %_ Edgewood—Vernon Highway, connecting Slocan Lakes with Okanagan Lakes.

District Engineer's Office, Penticton, B.C., September 4th, 1925. P. Philip, Esq., Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer, Victoria, B.C. Sir.—I beg to submit herewith annual report of work undertaken in the above district during the .fiscal year 1924-25. Roads (Maintenance, Repairs, and Improvements).—The traffic in this district is increasing very rapidly every year. This especially applies to North and South Okanagan and Similkameen Districts, and the increase in the number of large trucks has aggravated the situation to the extent that it is almost impossible to maintain gravelled roads to take care of this class of traffic. Approximately 2,000 freight-car loads of frui*- and produce were moved over roads in the vicinity of Kelowna alone, and this traffic occurs in the dry season when it is impossible to carry out any highway repairs to relieve the situation. I find that gross loads from 8 to 12 tons are quite common and this does not appear to be the limit. I would earnestly suggest as a permanent remedy that no licences be issued for trucks of over 3% tons in districts where we have only gravel and earth roads. District Generally.—Considerable improvements and diversions have been made on the main roads throughout the district, including the widening and gravelling of the Kelowna-Vernon Road and extending the Kelowna—Naramata Road. Several important highway revisions were made in the vicinity of Penticton, eliminating an old 1,700-foot trestle bridge and swing-span and replacing same with a fill and two short trestle bridges, thereby effecting a saving over the original scheme of some $35,000. Extensive improvements have also been carried out on the main road in Grand Forks- Greenwood District at the crossings of Rock Creek. In addition to ordinary maintenance-work, about 50 miles of road have been gravelled and approximately 8 miles of settlers' roads constructed. Through the City of Armstrong 1,800 feet of concrete highway 18 feet wide was constructed, the Department contributing half the cost of same. Generally speaking, very good results have been obtained considering the small appropriation, which, as I have pointed out before, has not been increased during the last seven years, while the traffic has more than trebled during that period. It is only by the use of machinery, of which we will require more and more as time goes on, that we have been able to give reasonable satisfaction to the public. As in the past years, we have been put to considerable expense by damage caused through irrigation-ditches, from which I can see no future relief. All of which is respectfully submitted. W. K. Gwyer, District Engineer. REPORT OF ENGINEER, DISTRICT No. 5. District Engineer's Office, Court-house, Nelson, B.C., June 10th, 1925. P. Philip, Esq., Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I beg to submit the following descriptive report dealing with the work carried out in Engineering District No. 5 during the fiscal year 1924-25:— Nelson Electoral District.—Usual maintenance-work was looked after on 4.84 miles of streets and roads and on approximately 2 miles of plank walks, while a stretch of 435 lineal feet of new 4-foot sidewalk was laid on Gore Street. An extension of Mountain Road for a distance of 2,200 lineal feet constituted the only construction-work undertaken in the'Nelson District. 2 Q 18 Public Works Report (1924-25). Trail Electoral District.—The heaviest travelled road in the Trail District is that between Nelson and Trail (48 miles) and a much-needed and greatly appreciated improvement was the construction of 2 miles of a diversion at Genelle. The old road, which followed a winding course between the pole-lines of the West Kootenay Power and Light Company was narrow, crooked, and had 14-per-cent. grades, whereas we now have at this point a road averaging 18 feet in width with a maximum grade of 5 per cent. A start was also made on the construction of the Murphy-Sullivan diversion, which is a continuation of the Genelle work, and in this connection it is interesting to note that between April, 1918, and March 31st, 1624, we have rebuilt on a new location 12.5 miles of the trunk road leading from Nelson to Trail. The Nelson-U.S. Boundary Road was improved and approximately 4 miles were gravelled, while a contract was let to reconstruct the portion of old road between Ymir and Boulder, which when completed will give a maximum grade of 6 per cent, from Nelson to the International Boundary, a distance of 42 miles. On the Nelson-Balfour Road we reconstructed 1.25 miles of road in the vicinity of Willow Point, eliminating four dangerous curves, on each of which one or more auto accidents had taken place in previous years. Gravelling operations were carried on by truck-haul as far as funds would permit and altogether about 9 miles of road were gravel-surfaced during the season. Maintenance-work was undertaken on 270 miles of road and 16.5 miles of trail, while we constructed and reconstructed 1.7 miles of road and built 0.7 mile of new trail out of our district vote. Under the Mines Department we constructed 4.4 miles of road to the Reno Mine and maintained and improved 10 miles of existing road, while they also assisted in the construction of 7.3 miles of trail and the improving of 11 miles of old trail. Rossland Electoral District.—General repairs were carried out on 66.75 miles of road and 16 miles of trails, while the Rossland-Cascade Road was improved by putting in many additional culverts, widening narrow spots, and gravelling the switchbacks near the Velvet Mine. We also continued our policy of placing additional crushed rock on the Trail-Rossland Road in the vicinity of Warfield. Kaslo Electoral District.—As in former years, a large. percentage of our money for the Kaslo District was spent between Kuskanook and Goatfell, in the Creston Valley. Macadamizing of the main road was completed between Creston and Alice Siding. Our total mileage of macadam roads between the latter point and Erickson is now approximately 7 miles. Between Erickson and Goatfell, a distance of 20 miles, there are many bad spots on the existing road and the most necessary work to be attended to is the Arrow Creek diversion, where the old road simply follows the tote-road built during railway-construction days. Work was done on 3 miles of new roads for settlers and assistance given on the construction of 1.25 miles of road up Duck Creek. In the area around Kaslo proper the most noticeable improvement was the completion of the Florence Landing diversion, mostly through solid rock, the measured yardage amounting to 7,800 cubic yards. This diversion eliminates a bad switchback with heavy grades on the old road and will eventually form portion of the main road between Nelson and Kaslo. Usual maintenance was undertaken on 230 miles of roads and 140 miles of trails, while the Department of Mines assisted on 40 miles of trail-work. Revelstoke Electoral District.—On the main roads in the Revelstoke District we concentrated as much as possible on gravelling. About 24 miles of road were gravelled 8 feet wide and averaging 4 inches deep. Construction of main roads was confined to the Big Bend Road, where we slashed 5 miles of right-of-way and graded 1.04 miles. .A notable feature in the Revelstoke District was the completion of a new road to the City Power Plant, rendered necessary by the washing-out of the Illecillewaet River Bridge on the old road. Careful investigation showed that the bridge could not be rebuilt under $15,000, and to get down to permanent foundation with the piers and abutments might have run the cost up to $18,000, whereas the new road only cost approximately $6,000, thus proving the value of looking carefully into matters before running into large expenditures of money. •:•-., .

Q 19 Lateral roads and trails requiring attention were repaired and brushed out, and in this connection we received assistance from the Department of Mines to the extent of practically $1,500. River-bank protection work carried out on the Illecillewaet River consisted of widening and deepening the channel opposite McKimion's crib and laying brush and rock mattress 130 feet long and 20 feet wide. Slocan Electoral District.—In the Slocan District we repaired 246 miles of roads, and where requests were made for the cleaning-out of trails these received attention. The Department of Mines authorized expenditures amounting to about $4,700, and of this amount there was spent $2,158 running a survey for a proposed trail 18 miles long from, the Edgewood-Vernon Road at Inonoaklin Crossing to Lightning Peak. An excellent location was obtained, with only a short stretch of 8 per cent, maximum grade, and the whole line extends through a comparatively easy country for trail or road construction. Trunk-road construction was confined to the construction by day-labour of 2 miles of the Slocan City-iSilverton Road near 10-Mile and by contract 10.25 miles of the Edgewood-Vernon Road between Inonoaklin Crossing and Kettle River. A survey was made for a proposed road from Box Lake to Rosebery, a distance of 21 miles, and an excellent location obtained. The final centre line was run in and about 3% miles of the right-of-way were slashed during the winter and early spring as a relief measure. Bridges.—The following new bridges were erected during 1924-25 :— Nelson Electoral District: One 55-foot stringer span over Cottonwood Creek. Trail Electoral District: Two 30-foot stringer spans—one framed trestle 247 feet long and one framed trestle 84 feet long. Kaslo Electoral District: Various stringer spans totalling 911 feet. Revelstoke Electoral District: Various stringer spans totalling 265 feet. Slocan Electoral District: One 60-G5-foot king-truss span over North Fork of Carpenter Creek; one 35-foot stringer span over Kuskanax Creek; one 35-foot stringer span and filled approaches over Goat Creek. In addition to the foregoing the following bridge-work was undertaken: 357 lineal feet of bridge replaced by culvert and fill, 16 truss bridges examined and overhauled, 292 stringer and trestle bridges repaired, and 13 stringer bridges reconstructed. The new steel bridge erected over the Columbia River at Revelstoke was opened for traffic in June, 1924, and is giving excellent service to the travelling public. Ferries.—All ferries in the district continue to give efficient service, and a start was made before the end of the fiscal year to construct approaches for a new ferry across the AVest Arm of the Kootenay Lake between Harrop and Longbeach, about 14 miles from Nelson. In conclusion, might I again respectfully urge the necessity of larger maintenance appropriations. With the opening-up, every year, of new links of main highways, the existing roads at either end of these links are now being subjected to heavy auto traffic, and at many points timber operators are using heavy trucks to take out timber that was only rendered accessible through the construction of our highways. Again have I to e:xpress appreciation for the excellent support and co-operation of all assistants during the year, while I also wish to thank the Department for consideration given to all district matters. Respectfully submitted. W. Ramsay, District Engineer. REPORT OF ENGINEER, DISTRICT No. 6. District Engineer's Office, Cranbrook, B.C., June 6th, 1925. P. Philip, Esq., Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I beg to submit the following general report for Engineering District No. 6 for the fiscal year ended March 31st, 1925:— The major operations in road-construction were chiefly carried out on the Golden-Yoho Park Highway and on the Trans-Provincial Highway. The former highway was commenced in the previous fiscal year and is being built in sections by contract, about 6 miles having been completed to date. This is a costly and difficult road to build and its progress must of necessity be slow. Great care is being taken with such construction features as crib foundations, rock retaining-walls, guard-rails, drainage, grades, alignment, overhead railway crossings, etc., and the finished product will be in keeping with progressive modern mountain highways. The Trans-Provincial Highway crosses this engineering district with an east-west trend and is gradually being brought up to modern standard. The portion between Goatfell and Cranbrook has needed the greatest amount of reconstruction and in some places relocation for many miles, and in this section there are yet 6 or 7 miles awaiting construction. Between Miles 29 and 32 west of Cranbrook 2 miles were constructed this fiscal year by day-labour at an average cost of $5,S78 per mile, which is considered good value for the type of country traversed. East of Cranbrook on the same highway 1 mile of reconstruction was carried out near Wardner. In the vicinity of Crowsnest and also at what is known at Hairpin Turn, 7 miles west of Fernie, advantage was taken of the relief to unemployment vote to obtain further improvements to our main road. The work at Hairpin Turn is not quite finished, but when it is, a capital "W" will be eliminated and a gradual 12° curve substituted therefor, with clear sight from one end to the other. A portion of this change is a trestle bridge with centre bent 50 feet high. A large number of roads were constructed and reconstructed to accommodate farming communities, mining interests, lumbering and other industrial interests, these being so numerous that no particular ones can be singled out for comment here, but all are set forth in derail on the accompanying forms. The great growth of the town of Kimberley, due to the vast operations of the Sullivan Mine, required special attention of this Department in the many matters coming under its jurisdiction in an unincorporated town. Street-intersection signs known as " Silent Policemen" were installed in Kimberley to good effect. A start was made by clearing the right-of-way on the new diversion of the Cranbrook-Kimberley Road through Blarchmont, a new townsite adjoining Kimberley. The great question of road maintenance is one which I might say this whole engineering district is strenuously struggling with. It is a struggle, not because of want of interest or assistance from your office, which has always been given freely to us, but because insufficient funds are ear-marked available for maintenance of roads. The fact that each year our mileage of new construction is added to, coupled with the fact that our traffic over the existing roads is tremendously increasing, and our district vote is remaining stationary, forms the chief difficulty of the problem. A welcome interest in our efforts was shown by the Cranbrook Board of Trade in putting forth a proposal to give a prize or bonus to the sectionman having the best-kept section for the season. The following trails received attention: Lost Creek, Bugaboo, Jubilee Mountain, Moose Creek, South Fork of Spillimacheen, and Whitefish. I might say that with limited funds no general policy of keeping open the great mileage of trails in this Engineering district could be attempted. Each specific request, however, was investigated with a view to rendering assistance where conditions warranted it and the cost was within the limits of procurable funds. In bridges, a very great improvement was made near Natal by choosing a new site for Jlichel Mouth Bridge, which was partly destroyed by flood in the previous fiscal year, and erecting a 120-foot Howe truss. This new site eliminated a narrow dangerous piece of road in solid-rock side-hill and placed the bridge where it could be seen in approach a long distance WjT Terrace Bridge over Little Canyon, Skeena River, showing 2.">0-foot steel span. In addition there are one 103-foot, two 140-foot, and two 90-foot steel spans, and approximately 440 feet of timber trestle approaches. Total length of bridge, 1,320 feet. .■ 15 Geo. 5 Report op Engineer, District No. 6. Q 21 off.. Other satisfactory bridge constructions in the Miehel-Crowsnest vicinity were Loop Bridge and Eddy's Bridge, the former having a 120-foot Howe-truss span and the latter a 100-foot Howe-truss span. All the above bridges were constructed on good concrete abutment piers and were carried out entirely by day-labour with economical estimated costs. Near Coal Creek, the great coal-mining town of Fernie, French Camp Bridge, with a 60-foot king truss on concrete piers, was satisfactorily built by contract. Another contract which gave excellent results was the erection of a 90-foot Howe truss on pile piers over the Moyie River at Yahk. A noticeable feature here is the well-built-up riprapped approach fills, cinder-topped. This work proved its value this spring (1925) when the Moyie rose exceptionally high, and no trouble was experienced whatever in the vicinity of Yahk Bridge, where in former years just the ordinary high water caused trouble and expense. In river-bank protection the most important work of the year was that carried out at Natal in a systematic scheme to confine Michel Creek to a mountain-bounded contour on the west, and keep it away from the low ground of the town, the highway, and the railways on the east. The work consisted of a series of span cribs at the upper end, spaced so as to deflect the river towards the mountainous side; a long crib, rock-filled and well mattressed to keep the river in bounds in passing the part of the town where it had the greater tendency to spread eastward; and a long newly dredged channel (excavated by steam-shovel) to take care of the run-off, directed as above. The scheme had a test this spring and worked satisfactorily. Some further work was done at West Fernie in the shape of wing-cribs and repairs to pile wall. On St. Mary River something further was done in the way of assisting the river to take the northerly channel about a mile up from its mouth, but owing to a desire to save funds too much dependence has been placed on hoping that the river itself would do the excavation-work. As happens nine times ont of ten, this expectation failed, and we have yet to carry out our preconceived scheme of doing enough excavation of the northerly channel and effectively damming the southerly channel to make this river take the course we want it to. The Golden river-bank protection continued to act effectively, nothing having been spent on it this fiscal year. Some trouble was experienced at Toby Creek Dam in the vicinity of Athalmer, where an exceptional drop in temperature in December caused the quick formation of anchor ice. In ferries the most extensive work was done at Donald, where good pile landing approaches were built. The ferries of the district are not of costly or elaborate type;. that is, none are equipped with engines or have any paid crew, as none are operated on any of the main highways or through roads. They are suitable, however, for the minor traffic served and are kept in safe repair. There is little to record regarding work done to Government buildings. A new cell building was built adjacent to the police constable's quarters at Wardner and some general repairs were made to the Fernie Court-house. Our own headquarters yards at Cranbrook were improved by tearing down an old dilapidated building and replacing it with shed type to be uniform with the other sheds that house our plant and tools, and the whole (including the fence) neatly painted grey. A lean-to shed was added to the warehouse at Athalmer and ground was acquired at Brisco and at Golden upon which to later erect housing for equipment. Equipment.—The one-man tractor grader has proved to be very economical and satisfactory in the maintenance of roads. The cost of shaping up a road with this grader may be taken at about 50 cents per mile per cut. Our roads usually require three cuts, sometimes four. We are thus reshaping our roads in the spring for $1.50 to $2 per mile. Nothing like this has been accomplished with teams or with any other type of equipment that we have tried. The portable rock-crushing plant is of a most suitable type for transportation in this district, and works splendidly in. the quartzite rock-slides which occur along the Trans- Provincial Highway west of Cranbrook, and where gravel-pits are very scarce. Owing to lack of funds, however, we had to close down surfacing-work before we had a chance to get reliable cost data and before we had put the top dressing on the base rock that was placed, thereby causiug a good deal of criticism when traffic had to iron out the sharp angular base course. The Cranbrook Garage continued to give good service and was conducted to give all Government departments the benefit of minimum charges, consistent with making the garage pay its way as a self-contained unit: that is, no particular profit is sought, but no loss is allowed. This is controlled by a monthly statement of profit and loss. The usual numbers of subdivision plans were submitted for approval and all road provisions were carefully considered before approval was given. The most extensive of these were subdivisions adjacent to Kimberley. Applications to construct works on public highways consisted of power-lines, electric-light lines, telephone-lines, logging-railways, and gasolene-pumps, pipe-lines, weighing-scales, culverts for irrigation purposes, and gates on little-used roads. Each and every one were considered as to their possible effect upon the safety or convenience of the public and alterations requested where necessary before permit was issued. Considerable attention was given this year to the question of extraordinary traffic. A form was devised covering the particular information that this office wants, such as the length of time applicant intends to operate, the roads he intends using, the weight of loads, the number of trips a day, and so on. Further, the applicant was asked what he proposed to do in the matter of assisting the Government to keep the road thus subjected to extraordinary traffic in a reasonable state of repair and restore same on cessation of his traffic. By presenting these forms to all whom we found using the roads in this way, we soon created a much better understanding with the operators and obtained considerable co-operation from them. The policy of not building any more wooden sidewalks wTas adhered to, and very good rolled cinder sidewalks were laid in Wardner and to the cemetery at Cranbrook. The following roads were gazetted: West Side Road, Williamson Road, Wills Road, Meadow- brook Settlement Road, and Moyie Lake diversion of the Inter-Provincial Highway. During the fiscal year a change iu the " Constitution Act" necessitated some changes in the administrative boundaries as well as in the filing system. Forest fires occurred in the mountains near Sheep Creek and between Finlay and Dutch Creeks. No change was made in the scale of wages and labour conditions remained about normal in Cranbrook and Columbia Districts, but in Fernie, owing to a prolonged strike amongst the coal-miners and rather extensive losses due to the Home Bank failure, many w;ere destitute and Government relief-work.was inaugurated for them. As mentioned before, this was carried out in the Trans-Provincial Highway on much-needed improvements. As to the vagaries of the weather, the following might be recorded: Warm weather and high water came about- a month earlier than usual; that is, there was a big run-off about the middle of May, 1924. No special damage was done, but we were forced to rush matters somewhat at the Natal river-bank protection-work and hold in safe condition what had already been done until the rush-water subsided. This added materially to the cost, but was unavoidable. A further p,henomenon occurred in the winter, the Cranbrook paper of December 20th, 1924, stating as follows: " An Indian from Wardner reports that his tepee was blown down during the gale last Sunday night during his absence and that he can find no trace of his wife and child or the tent. Veteran railroad-men state they have never experienced such a sudden change in the weather, which made railroading particularly trying. At Crowsnest the temperature dropped over 70° within a few hours. This drop from 50° above to 20° below was accompanied by an extremely high wind. Three engines were required to pull one. train through the pass." This wind blew many trees down on our roads. A peculiar result of the drop in temperature was the killing of many pine-trees which apparently had the sap started in the warm days and suddenly became frozen. Another result of the drop in temperature was the formation of anchor ice in many of the streams and the endangering of some of our bridges and protectioi>work. Trouble at Toby Creek Dam was mentioned previously, and the bridges over the Spillimacheen River and Bugaboo Creek were severally wracked, the former so much so that it is now being rebuilt, but, as a matter of fact, it is no economic loss, as its life was done in any event. In changes in our staff, G. C. Tassie, Assistant District Engineer at Golden, was transferred to Vernon, and H. W. Stevens, who had been Resident Engineer in the Golden-Yoho Park Road construction, succeeded him. Miss Drummond, District Engineer's clerk, was transferred to Vancouver and was succeeded by J. E. Warren. It is a pleasure to record the loyal and energetic support of all those working with me, each one having put forth his or her individual effort " to trim the ship." We wish to convey to you and your staff appreciation of your ever kindly assistance. Respectfully submitted. _ J. C. Brady, District Engineer. ♦ • * TBK.iff*- •;^%tr^\7-V"^^5^.^ inf. ■ k-f* - ^MittA* .. .,. Horseshoe Bend Hydraulic Mine, Bridge River, showing North Fork Road, Lillooet District.

Philip, Esq., Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I have the honour to submit my report for the fiscal year 19243-25, covering the irtlin, Prince Rupert, and Omineca Electoral Districts. Roads.—The roads in the three districts were maintained during the year and no difficulties were experienced, except in the Hazelton District, during the fall, when heavy rains and heavy traffic caused considerable damage to the roads. This damage was mostly repaired before freeze-up. Gravelling was undertaken on several of the main roads, particularly in the Omineca District. In the Atlin District the chief construction was the extension of the Indian Mines Wagon- road, the Dunwell Mines Wagon-road, and Salmon River Road extension to the Premier Mine. Under an arrangement with the Department the work was done by the Premier Mining Company on the Salmon River Road extension. Further work was also done on the Telegraph Creek- Dease Lake Road. In the Prince Rupert Electoral District usual maintenance and repairs were carried out. Weather conditions were favourable and road maintenance expenditure was light. The following new construction was done and charged to " Highway Loan " : Grubbing on the Port Clements- Tlell Road with steam-donkey for a distance of 7 miles; 5 miles of new construction on the Kallum Lake Main Road; 5 miles of clearing on the Kaien Island Highway from Prince Rupert Townsite to Galloway Rapids. Owing to the flood damage in the Bella Coola Valley maintenance was very heavy. The main road from Bella Coola Townsite to the existing wharf was washed out and it was found necessary to commence construction of a new road from the Cannery Wharf to the 4-Mile Bridge. The contract for this work was let to Robertson Bros, and is at present proceeding. In the Omineca District maintenance and repairs were undertaken. New construction was carried out on the Colley Mountain Road, McDonald Landing Road, and Francois-Ootsa Lake Road. On the Burns Lake-Endako Road 10 miles of new construction were carried out through very heavy material, particularly on the west end. This work on the west end was done by steam-shovel. Eighteen miles still remain to be constructed to connect this link of the Fort George-Hazelton Highway. Trails were maintained in all districts and several new trails were built in Atlin District. Bridges.—In Omineca and Atlin very little damage was caused by highway water, but serious damage was done in the Bella Coola Valley in the month of September on account of extraordinary rainfall causing floods in the Bella Coola and Necleetsconnay Rivers. The Necleetseonnay trestle was washed out for a distance of 110 feet and has now been replaced with a suspension bridge. The centre pier of the Clayton Bridge was seriously damaged by high water. The Hagensborg Bridge was completely washed, out. Damage was also done to the Canoe Crossing Bridge. Repairs have now been carried out on all of the bridges except the Hagensborg Bridge. Terrace Bridge wras successfully completed. This bridge consists of one 250-foot steel through span, one ICO'-foot steel deck span, two 140-foot steel deck spans, and two 90-foot steel deck spans, built on concrete piers. The approaches are timber trestles. A new bridge of 1,030-foot trestle and one 50-foot span was constructed at Delkatla Slough, Queen Charlotte Islands, at a cost of, roughly, $9 per foot. This bridge replaces an old trestle which was in very bad repair. In the Omineca District repairs were carried out on the Haguelgate Suspension Bridge. Caps on the towers were replaced and new posts were put in. Some repairs were also carried out on the Skeena Suspension Bridge and running-boards were put on the Hazelton Bridge across the Bulkley River. Three new bridges were built across the Endako River—two at Endako and one at Savory. Work was started on the Telkwa River Bridge, which will consist of two concrete piers; one concrete abutment; two 100-foot Howe-truss spans with trestle approach on the north end. This work has been seriously held up on account of weather conditions. Q 24 Public Works Report (1924-25). Ferries.—Ferries were all maintained during the year, and on account of the construction of the Terrace Bridge the Terrace Ferry can now be removed and will probably be placed at Remo. A new ferry-landing designed by General Foreman Anderson and installed at Usk was found to be very successful and it is proposed to put in more of these landings. Wharves.—Maintenance-work was carried out on Prince Rupert and Bella Coola Wharves, although Bella Coola Wharf has now got to a state where maintenance-work is practically useless. Tbe ramp and bridge approach to the Prince Rupert Wharf, owing to being in an unsafe condition, have now been removed and an approach road is being constructed to the wharf. This work is now practically completed and is open for traffic. Further work will be necessary on the Prince Rupert Wharf, as the life of same is practically completed. River-protection.—Assistance was given to the settlers in Bella Coola A'alley to carry out river-protection work at Hagensborg. Organisation.—The Whole organization worked in a satisfactory manner, but it is with regret I have to report that Assistant District Engineer T. T. Dunlop, in carrying out his duties in examination of the Smithers Bridge across the Bulkley River, slipped off one of the piers and was drowned. This accident occurred on May 15th, 1924. Labour.—'Labour conditions were satisfactory. Wages were the same as last year and very little difficulty wras experienced in getting men at all seasons of the year. Materials were easy to get and prices appear to be reaching normal. General.—On the whole the work has been carried out in as economical and efficient manner as possible. Every assistance was received from the Department in Victoria and all permanent forces of the Department in this district carried out their duties in a most satisfactory manner. On January 1st, 1925, a change was made in this district, District Engineer R. M. Taylor was transferred to Kamloops and the undersigned was transferred from Cariboo to this district. All of which is respectfully submitted. G. C. Mackay, District Engineer. REPORT OF ENGINEER, DISTRICT No. S. District Engineer's Office, Prince George, B.C., June 30th, 1925. P. Philip, Esq., Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I have the honour to submit my annual report for the fiscal year ended March 31st, 1925. This season, one of the earliest known in the Central Interior, marked an early start on our programme, the end of April seeing the majority of main roads in very fair condition. An effort was made at the outset to further improve our main system, and this work was carried on with good results as far as funds would permit. Main Roads.—The main Cariboo Road (south from Prince George) wTas given much attention, principally widening side-hills in heavy cutting to standard width and filling low points preparatory to surfacing, which was laid in short stretches during the winter months. The Fort George-Hazelton Road between Prince George and Endako was similarly treated, a number of narrow hills having been improved and the original location revised in several sections. Much more of this work is necessary, involving short diversions in order to eliminate bad grades and poor alignment. Between Vanderhoof and Fort St. James several essential improvements were made, especially on the central portion preparatory work being carried out, so that another season will make the whole road in the graded class. Another much-desired main road between Prince George and Giscome was pushed ahead, but the heavy work near Willow River again engaged most attention, leaving the last 5 miles for another season. The main road between McBride and Dunster .was improved as far as possible in the vicinity of Baker Creek, but much remains to be done before these two communities are linked together. 15 Geo. 5 Report of Engineer, District No. 9. Q 25 North of Prince George the .Summit Lake Road was much improved at Salmon River Hill, where the original 16-per-cent. grade was reduced in part to 7 per cent., the top end being left for another season. Widening and grading was carried out in the vicinity of Summit Lake. Apart from the above works, the main roads were well maintained by patrol grader and drags throughout the summer. Lateral Roads.—A large number of side-roads were constructed or improved at the many small centres along the Grand Trunk Railway. Peace River District.—Main Roads: The main road from Pouce Coupe to Grande Prairie was regraded and short revisions constructed to improve grade and alignment. Lateral Roads: New road allowances were "opened up and graded where required on Pouce Coupe Prairie. Improvements were also made in the Fort St. John and Hudson Hope Districts. Bridge-work.—The only large structure erected during the year was at McBride across the Fraser River, this work being essential to open up the main road eastwards, as well as develop the lands on the north side of the river. This bridge is made up of two 100-foot and one 130-foot Howe-truss spans on pile piers, with pile-trestle approaches, local timber being used throughout with the exception of chord-leaves. The work was carried out very efficiently by day-labour, the cost being kept well within the estimates. A number of smaller bridges were constructed in the district, principally over the Stellako River near Endako, where a 00-foot king-truss span with pile approaches was erected. Repairs were also made to small stringer bridges at various points throughout the district. Ferries.—The number of ferries in the district is being annually reduced, and the work this year consisted purely of maintenance, with the exception of Isle Pierre, where the old scow ferry was replaced with one of the pontoon type. General.—The work was carried out by a plentiful supply of day-labour and, judging from results, efficient, conscientious work was obtained. This improvement is being noticed more and more each spring, the usual expensive spring work being less in evidence. A change was made in the outside staff by a transfer of the General Foreman from Pouce Coupe to Prince George, and vice versa. Taking everything all round, the work progressed very satisfactorily, with a desire for efficiency by those concerned. All of which is respectfully submitted. A. Dixon, District Engineer. REPORT OF ENGINEER, DISTRICT No. 9. District Engineer's Office, 150-Mile House, B.C., June 30th, 1025. P. Philip, Esq., Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I have the honor to submit my report for the fiscal year 1924-25. Roads repaired and maintained, 1,840 miles; trails repaired and maintained, 65 miles; new roads constructed, 63 miles; bridges repaired extensively, 72; bridges reconstructed, 31, totalling 765 feet; new bridges built, 18, totalling 935 feet. Ten ferries were maintained and operated. A new 10-ton standard ferry was built for service at Quesnel. The most important bridge-work was the repairs to the Chilcotin Suspension Bridge. The 2%-inch main cables on the 320-foot suspension span were shortened to give camber and rigidity to the deck. A new deck and hand-rail truss were put on, also guy-cables, all without closing the bridge to traffic. This bridge, which has been undergoing a series of extensive repairs during the past four years, is now in first-class condition. The unfinished link on the Quesnel-Prince George Road was practically completed, permitting this road to be open for traffic. There is still considerable work to be done on this highway at the Cottonwood Hills and near Canyon Creek. The gravel surfacing of the road is also necessary. Q 26 Public Works Report (1924-25). An additional 3 miles of the " Hanceville Timber " diversion on the Chilcotin Main Road wTere completed, leaving approximately 2% miles to finish this piece of work. Twelve miles of that important railway feeder from Bridge Lake to Lone Butte Station, P.G.E., were built; a further 12 miles and this road will connect the Bridge Lake Settlement with the road system. A new road from the west end of Horse Lake, direct to Lone Butte, 2% miles in length, was built. With the exception of gravelling, the western section of Horsefly Lake Road, 4% miles in length, was completed. The installation of a dredge at Antler Creek and the hauling of heavy machinery from the railway at Quesnel to the dredging-ground made it necessary to do extensive repairs to the roads and bridges between these points. On January 1st District Engineer G. C. Mackay was transferred to District No. 7 and the undersigned appointed to this district. All of which is respectfully submitted. E. S. Jones, District Engineer. REPORT OF SUPERVISING ARCHITECT. Dep.vrtment of Public Works, Victoria, B.C., September 23rd, 1925. P. Philip, Esq., Deputy Minister and Public Works Engineer, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I have great pleasure in submitting herewith the annual report of the Architectural Branch for the year ended March 31st, 1925. Capital Expenoiture. Essondale.—The new power-house at Essondale was commenced and practically completed along with the steam-distribution mains connecting the building with the different units. The building is designed to accommodate two extra boilers, which will be sufficient for the ultimate development of the institution and also supply steam to the Boys' Industrial School at Coquitlam. I have every reason to believe that for design and equipment this building will be second to none in Western Canada. John Peck, Chief Inspector of Boilers and Machinery, has been responsible for the design of the boiler units, mechanical equipment, and steam mains, the Architectural Branch erecting the buildings and ducts. The new Acute Building at Essondale was completed and occupied, the construction having occupied over two years. The Province now possesses two of the best units on the American Continent for treatment of mental cases, about which much favourable comment has been made. Two residences for medical officers were commenced during the year and the Medical Superintendent's House was completed. Much credit is due the institution, in that these buildings have been erected by patient- labour with the assistance of the institution's staff under our direction. University of B.C.—The erection of the various permanent and temporary buildings at the University has been continued and rapid progress has been made, particularly on the temporary buildings. It is a pleasure to bring to your attention the excellent class of workmanship that has been done by the contractors on both the permanent and temporary buildings, and the good feeling and co-operation that have e.xisted between the contractors, their sub-contractors and myself, and the architects for the permanent buildings, Sharp & Thompson. I am convinced that when the buildings are completed they will reflect credit to the Government. The University authorises will be more than satisfied with what has been accomplished for them. Designs have been made for equipment, and details of furnishings have been prepared in co-operation with the Purchasing Agent, the University authorities, and myself. Under the direction of Walter Leek, Consulting Mechanical Engineer, and James Muirhead, Inspector of Electrical Energy, designs are being prepared for steam, gas, water and electrical distribution systems to supply the various buildings. J Interior of power-house, Mental Hospital, Essondale, B.i 15 Geo. 5 Report of Supervising Architect. Q 27 This branch, designed and contracts -were awarded for the Forest Products Laboratory, another temporary building, and good progress has been made in its erection. Deaf, Dumb, and Blind School.—An auditorium and gymnasium were erected at this institution from funds bequeathed to it by the late James Braid and a much-needed want has been supplied to this institution. Various repairs, alterations, and the usual maintenance have been carried out to the main building. Hospital for Incurables, Marpole.—Plans prepared last year for the necessary improvements and alterations have been carried out and a complete transformation of the building has been effected. Boys' Industrial School.—An auditorium and school-room were erected at this institution, the work being executed by the boys themselves under the direction of their instructors and under our supervision. An excellent building has been erected and great credit is due to the boys and their instructor. The educational feature has been of great value to some of the boys who will benefit when they leave the institution. Other improvements have been made to the grounds In constructing curbs around the grounds, additional planting, etc. The balance of the cottages, etc., have been redecorated internally. Plans have been prepared for a swimming-pool and gymnasium as an extension to the auditorium and school-room. Tranquille.—The new buildings at Tranquille were completed during this year and improvements undertaken on the various buildings and grounds and the farm. Smithers Court-house.—Plans were prepared for the Court-house at Smithers and contract' awarded. Look-ups.—A new lock-up at Oliver was erected on the new standard plans. Improvements and renovations were made to existing buildings. Schools.—Plans for a new twelve-room frame school at Michel were prepared, but the building was not undertaken. The following smaller schools were erected during the year: Four rooms, 1; two rooms, 2; one room, 3; two-room' addition, 2; one-room addition, 3. At the request of the Education Department numerous plans and specifications of otur standard school plans were provided various School Boards. Where the Education Department has given grants to non-Provincial undertakings the architect's plans have been examined and approved. Hospitals.—The Branch has examined various hospital plans in connection with which the Provincial Secretary has made grants. Assistance has been rendered to various Boards and architects in the preparation of the plans. Valuation,—At the request of the Department of Finance, the Branch has made an inventory of furniture and valuation of property throughout the Province. This took up considerable time and travelling to accomplish in the time at our disposal. I wish to express my appreciation of the assistance given me by the District Engineers of the Public Works Department, who supplied the information in places where it was not convenient for my staff to visit. War Memorial, Parliament Buildings.—The Branch prepared the plans for the pedestal of the new War Memorial to be erected in the Parliament Building grounds, supervised the cutting of the stone, and supplied the foundation for the same. Game Farm, Elk Lake.—iA. cottage for the Game Warden at Elk Lake Game Farm wias started and a barn building erected by our own carpenters. Repairs and M.untenance. Parliament Buildings.—The usual maintenance and repairs to the buildings have been efficiently carried out by our staff, and the .grounds improved, particularly around the southern part of the grounds, under the direction of the Head Gardener. Alterations were made in the Printing Department to give better accommodation and enable the work of that Department to be more economically carried out. Government House.—The old vinery was taken down and partially erected of reinforced concrete, so that the wooden part can easily be repaired without effecting the structure in any way. Repairs and improvements were made to the Lieutenant-Governor's residence. Q 28 Public Works Report (1924-25). Normal Schools, Victoria and Vancouver.—The general maintenance of these buildings has been carried out. A new retaining-wall and boundary fence were erected on the east boundary of the Vancouver site. Mental Hospitals, Essondale, Neio Westminster, and Saanich.—The maintenance and repairs of these institutions have been carried out by the institution staff under our direction. At New Westminster in particular some of the old wards were remodelled and placed in first-class condition. Girls' Industrial 'School.—General maintenance of the buildings was carried out. Court-house.—The general maintenance of the various agencies was carried out during the year, at Vancouver and Nelson in particular. Various improvements and alterations were made to more effectively house the staffs of various departments. Old Men's Home, Kamloops.—In addition to the usual maintenance and repairs, the old cattle-barn was reconstructed on more modern lines. Prisons, Nelson, Oakalla, and Kamloops.—The usual maintenance of the buildings was carried out by prison help. Great improvements to the grounds were made at Oakalla by the same labour, and improvements in the kitchen and laundry were carried out and a complete new laundry equipment installed. The old wooden gaol was placed on concrete foundations to prevent it from ultimate destruction by dry-rot. In conclusion, I wish to express my appreciation of the assistance given me by the members of my staff and the various technical officers who have been associated with me, more particularly on the University and Essondale buildings, for their whole-hearted support and assistance and ready co-operation in these and other works in the largest building programme in the history of the Branch. I also wish to mention the various tradesmen employed on the Parliament Buildings and the various institution staffs for their excellent work on the various maintenance and constructional work carried out during the year. Attached hereto are photos of several of the more important works executed during the year. Thanking you for the kindly consideration and co-operation given this Branch in carrying out the year's programme. All of which is respectfully submitted.
