Item: WD-90-81. Date: June 24, 1981. Subject: Jackman Road Bailey Bridge - Bowmanville. Recommendation: THAT the correspondence from the Ministry of Transportation & Comm- unications dated June 9, 1981, be acknowledged and, further, that the Ministry be advised of the Municipality's concerns in regard to i the relatively low A.A.D.T. on Jackman Road and, therefore, until development occurs the Town of Newcastle cannot justify an expend- iture for bridge replacement. Report: Resolution # W-112-81 adopted Report WD-63-81 whereby the Ministry of Transportation and Communications was requested to extend the existing loan agreement in respect of the Jackman Road Bailey Bridge for a further period of two (2) years. The attached correspondence in reply to the above, agrees to the extension of loan until October, 1983; however, the Ministry of Transportation & Communications requests information as to the Municipality's intentions or plans for the replacement, or other- wise, of the structure. As with several other possible projects, the A.A.D.T. on Jackman Road is relatively low and, as such, would not warrant expenditures of any great magnitude; also it is quite possible that replacing the Bridge may not be justified for the next 5 - 10 years. With this in mind, it may well be in the Town's best interests, finan- cially and otherwise, at some point in time, to close the Bridge, by by-law, and return the structure to the Ministry of Transportation & Communications. _r� C 5 Ontario N Ministry of Transportation and District No. 6, Communications 5000 Yonge Street, Wi l lowd;i1 e, Ontario.

Item: WD--63-81. Date: May 4 , 1981. Subject : Jackman Road Bailey Bridge, Bowmanville. Recommendation: THAT the Ministry of Transportation & Communications be re- quested to extend the loan agreement in respect of the Jackman Road Bailey Bridge for a further period of two (2) years. Report: The subject bridge was originally loaned to the former Town of Bowmanvil.le in 1970, for a three (3) year period. The Ministry of Transportation & Communications granted an extension to the loan period, for two years, in January, 1974 ; further extensions were granted in September, 1975 (one year) 1977 (two-year) and 1979 (two years) . The latter extension expires in October, 1981. Since the original loan was granted, several repairs and restorations have been effected to the structure, in accord- ance with Ministry requirements resulting from periodical inspection:; of the bridge. It is recommended that, until the Town can determine and con- struct a permanent access road across the creek at Jackman ! Road, the present arrangement with the Ministry of Transport- ation & Communications be continued. i I
