Geologic interpretations of seismic data, relocation of Route 116, Stations 7-135 in Cheshire, Mass.

Three segments of the proposed relocation of Route 116, stations 7 to 135, in Cheshire, Mass. require shallow cuts. For the purpose of obtaining information on the depths to bedrock, and on the nature of the overlaying materials, seismic and geologic studies were made of the segments in October 1949. The work was done as part of the cooperative program of the Massachusetts Department of Public Works and the United States Department of the Interior, Geological Survey. On seismic transverse was made between stations 7 and 15, 1 between stations 80 and 82, 3 between stations 85 and 90, and 4 between stations 125 and 135.
