CONDITION OF VICTORIA BRIDGE.

“The city engineer (Mr. E. F. Gilchrist) has reported that Victoria Bridge is being watched very carefully, and that its condition now is as good as it ever was,” the Lord Mayor (Alderman J. W. Greene) stated yesterday. Several improvements had been made to the bridge, the Lord Mayor added. Alderman A. Laurie had asked for a report, prepared three years ago, by the Government bridge inspector (Mr. W. H. Andrews), who suggested that the bridge required attention.
