10,000 Eaen # A track was not laid on the embankment running
S. of Beersheba towards Asluj, but the existence of the li^it
construction railway alongside, mentioned in previous reports,
was confirmed. Rails have been laid on a deviation to the
South, but not on the main embankment*
The bridge at Abu Irgeig is still unfit for use, and the stone
arched bridge over the Wadi Saba is not completed*
Some new bridges are reported, at El Kheimeh and Tell
El Nejeiieh,
The bridge at Beersheba is progressing but it will
probably not be fit for traffic for three or four months.
It seems that in consequence the work on the embankment to the S.
is not being pushed at present.
