Geologic and seismic investigations for relocation of Route 20 (Springfield Bypass) Alden Street to Chicopee River, proposed cuts, stations 783-788, and 790-796 in Ludlow, Mass.

This work was done to obtain geologic and seismic data that would aid in establishing a grade for the proposed highway and, also, be of value in preparing estimates on the quantities of materials to be excavated from the cuts. Seismic work was done at two sites, namely, stations 783-788; and 790-796. The work was performed in February 19852 as part of a cooperative program of the Massachusetts Department of Public Works and the United State Geological Survey.
