Railroads Object to State Boards
Ideas Of Improving Intersections.
Denver-The method OF safeguard
ing railroad crossings to prevent the
constantly increasing numbers of acct
dents recommended by ID. S. Hooker,
civil engineer of the State Utilities
Board, was opposed by thirty railroad
officials, representatives of twelve
Colorado railroads. at meeting OF
the utilities board.
Mr. Hookers report recommended
improvements at crossings, leyelling
the roads with the top of tracks,
tablishment of standard crossing
twenty-four feet in width throughout
the state. He also suggested that ap'
proaches to the tracks be constructed
ON a uniform grade not to exceed
per cent and that standard sketch and
record cards, showing the traffic
census, the physiography of the land
near the crossing and the methods of
protection be filed with the commits
sion.
In protesting against the adoption
of this recommendation. II. U. Nudge,
president of the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad, expressed the opinion that
the price of reducing the gradings and
filling the requirements of the report
would be so prohibitive as to render
the proposition impossible. There are
1876 crossings in the state that would
have to be graded. he pointed out, and
che cost of adjusting them would ap.
