THE STOCEBRIDGE COMMISSIONERS AND TIIE -
• ,GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY COMPANY.
. • -,
,
To the .Editor of the '1 Sitourbridge Observer." ‘ ~
,
' Si,—it has been. suggested to me that a short explana-
don Of this question may be acceptable. The clauses in the. '
Bill now before Parliament which the Commissioners desire
to 'oppose are two in number. - ,
lit.—A clanse substituting a road now being constructed 1
frotn Vauxhall to l'arkfield entrance and the road thence
into Church Street for a 'part' of. -Foster Street,' in ' effect •
,bloCking up Foster Street as a thoroughfare.
2nd.—A clause extending the time allowed the Company ' 4
fOr the purchase of land for the construction of an embank- 'I -.
moat in lieu of the Stepping Stones Viaduct. ,
• As to the first-mentioned clause, notwithstandingthat the '
deposited plans and sections referred to in the Act under • ..
which the railway is being made refer to to the above-men- • ' e
tioned roadies I" a divermon of road," it is very doubtful
whether the Company are legally exempt from the ordinary
liability of cart, i.ng their railWayoVer Fester Street, or the
street over the railway, by Means of a bridge ; indeed the
fact that by the present bill they seek to be relieved from
, eu'e4 liability is strong evidence that in the opinion of their .r
own advisers.they are not exempt, and if such be the cor-
--r6ct interpretation of the law a successful opposition to . '..3
the clause will ensure Foster Street, as a thoroughfare, being
preserved to the public.
. •As,to the secondly above-mentioned clause little explana-
tion is needed. Captain Tyler, in December, 1876, in his
report to the Board of Trade, said he was of opinion tnat
the Railway Company would act wisely in at once proper- '
ing to rebuild the Viaduct with materials of a more durable. •
haracter. The fabric, the safety of which is of such pars, 3
mount importance, but as to the safety of which some have - •
• a serious misgiving, still remains, and the Company by this ".
• clause seek to postpone the day on which they must replace ...,.*
it, by something better.
1 The question.to be determined by the pollen Wednesday -,::
'next, is, therefore, practically shall or shall not the commis- • ,
taioners, even late.as it is inthe clay, be empowered by op-
~
;posing the Bill, to do wkat they can to preserve Foster-at, a , i' '
"pnblio thoroughfare, and to hasten the removal of the
'viaduct. - • ' - :, • .
