Section 35

Section 35. When a river, creek or rivulet over which it may be necessary to erect a bridge crosses a public road or highway, and the erecting of such bridge requires more expense than it is reasonable that one or two adjoining townships should bear, the court having jurisdiction as aforesaid, shall, on the representation of the supervisors, or on the petition of any of the inhabitants of the respective townships, order a view, in the manner provided for in the case of roads, and if on the report of viewers, it shall appear to the court, grand jury, and commissioners of the county, that such bridge is necessary, and would be too expensive for such township or townships, it shall be entered on record as a county bridge.
