Road Builders Break
Water Lines In Warsaw
. ? ? ? . ./ , ; BfaHf ^ ? __J
By Joe Lanier
The town of Warsaw faces
an unexpected expense in
replacement of waterlines
broken during excavations
for iimproving N.C. 24.
The state is widening the
highway through a portion of
Wsray Included in the
work n excavation and re
moval of soil considered un
stable for a roadbed and.
replacement of it with more
suitable material. However,
the deep digging is rupturing
the town waterlines. which
run parallel to the highway.
Thurman Gaster. main
tenance supervisor, told the
town board at a recent meet
ing. he would have normally
expected a cost of $500 for
moving fire hydrants and
changing some hook-ups into
homes. He said that so far
the town's cost for waterline
repair has been $4,850. He
predicted sharply higher
repair costs before the high
way project is competed.
I A meeting of towfi officials
and officials of Cumberland
Paving Co. of Fayetteville
and DOT engineers was
scheduled to attempt to solve
the problem by changing
excavation procedures. Town
manager Alfred Herring said
the amount of excavation was
not expected because of a
lack of soil borings. He said
the deep digging could cause
an expensive problem with a
forced sewerline pumping
station.
The entire road project
spans 1.3 miles.
