NEWS OF THE ROAD,
OPEN AND CLOSED
Where to Go and Where
Not to Go in and Near
the Greater CITY.

Out of the four magnificent bridges
over the East River. on which millions
Of dollars have been spent, not one Of
them is At for a Rocky Mountain goat
TO travel over. Strange as il may seem,
the oldest one Of the quartet, the
Brooklyn Bridge. is in the best shape,
and that Is hardly worth mentioning.
The Manhattan Bridge Is still torn
up on both ends. and nobody seems TO
know when il will be completed. The
Williamsburg Bridge Is In the rankest
kind Of condition, and the worst road
in the East is hardly as bad as the
spring destroying surface Of the
greensboro Bridge.
The Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, is in
for an all summer ripping up, but 10 is
barely possible a driveway may be
maintained on the side Just when the
street destroyers will be turned loose
on the Parkway has not been decided,
but probably not before the summer
traffic is the heaviest.
Short Cut to Sea Gate.
Motorists looking for a short cut to
Sea Gate will find the following route
passably good: over the old Brooklyn
Bridge TO Clinton Street. along Clinton
Street 10 Hamilton Avenue, along Ham
ilton Avenue TO Prospect Avenue, along
Prospect Avenue TO Fourth Avenue,
down Fourth Avenue TO Fortieth Street,
east on Fortieth Street TO Fifth Ave
nue. and down Fifth Avenue TO Cropsey
Avenue, following Cropsey Avenue into
Harway Avenue, and straight into Sew
enteenth Street, Coney Island; turn
right on Mermaid Avenue to Sea Gate.
Do not use either Neptune or Surf ave-
nue., Coney Island as they are both bad.
Do not use Fort Hamilton Parkway,
as it is extremely poor
Fourth Avenue, Brooklyn, is still
torn up below Fortieth Street.
The Shore Road to Fort Hamilton is
fair. Those wishing to get on it from
Manhattan should use the short cut to
Sea Gate, above described, turning
right off Of Fifth Avenue On Bay Ridge

JERSEYS TRAFFIC LAW
DINNERS to be Permanent and

New Jerseys new traffic law has
gone into effect 1t is supposed TO
define who has the right Of way at

such points is given to the driver OF
