The following shall govern the methods by which street may be cut and excavated. A. Truck mounted pavement breakers shall not be used for the purpose of cutting any public street or alley, provided however, the Street Superintendent may grant written permission to use same under special circumstances when the Street Superintenden is of the opinion same may be used safely without causing damage. B. In the making of any improved street or improved alley cut in excess of 125 lineal feet in length, an initial cut of not less than 20% of the actual existing pavement thickness shall be made by either an asphalt or concrete saw, or other methods approved by the Street Superintendent; which said require- ment shall be applicable only to improved streets and alleys where the pavement is 2 112" or more in thickness. C. Unless otherwise ordered by the Street Superinten- dent the earth in all tunnels shall be cut to "V" shape for full width of the trench, having the point of the "V" at the center of the top of the tunnel, and the slope of the "V" making an angle of not less than 45 degrees with the horizontal. D. All materials excavated shall be laid compactly along the sides of the trench and kept trimmed up so as to be as little inconvenience as possible to public travel. If the street is not wide enough to hold the excavated materials without using a part of the adjacent sidewalk, the person by whom such excavatio is made shall erect a tight fence up and around such sidewalk. and
