Please refer to your letter of May 25, 1973 concerning your request
for a fence to be erected between Shaughnessy Street underpass and
Coquitlam River bridge on the north side of the right-of-way.

The work requested had been scheduled on the basis of a standard
page wire right-of-way fence but on the recommendation of one of
our employees I am writing to suggest that such a fenes may be
unsatisfactory in keeping small children off railway property
and in the circumstances yon may wish to consider the erection
of achain link fence, The estimated cost of a chain link fence
is $4,400 and the Railway Company would consider paying a portion
equivalent to the estimated cost of $1,000.00 of erecting the
standsrd page wire fence.

Please let me hear from you at your earliest conveniencs.

Yours truly,

A. BE, Hilling
Superintendent
