ROAD AND BRIDGE DELAY
CAUSES so. AMBOY WONDER

By Special Correspondent.
SOUTH AMBOY. Aug. 13-Why
was the program Of road improve
ment stopped when the state bridge
was closed to trafic2 This is the
question which is being asked by
everyone in this city and vicinity.
Until the bridge vas closed or July
2f. the state highway commission
was pushing to completion the new
concrete road over what Is known as
the Pennsylvania railroad right of
way and the Board Of Freeholders
were making Improvements TO Rari-
tan street, and were laying concrete
through the hoie-in-the-wall. All
Of these Improvements have been
stopped in a s~emi-inished condition
and when work will again be started
is not known.
The state highway over the Penn
syivania right Of way has beer COM
pleted with the exception Of some
tramming along the sides. Raritan
street Is dotted with huge piles OF
stone and concrete has been laid
half way through the hole-in-the-
wall. VIII these thoroughfares be
ready for traffic by the time the
bridge is open or will they wait to
/ complete them after traffic once
more is allowed to use the bridge?
This is the question which is being
asked and which no one seems to be
able to answer.
Want Shuttle Train.
With the announcement yesterday
that the bridge will not be ready for
I traffic until September 1. commuters
who work in Perth Amboy are de-
handing that some action be taken
to obtain a shuttle train between the
two cities. Considerable criticism Is
being heard against the highway
board for allowing the bridge to be
closed without arranging with the
railroad for some additional service.
The men who commute daily be.
tween the two cities claim that an
injustice has been done them in that
the highway department did not an
nounce the date originally on which
the bridge would be completed 50
; that other means OF transportation
could be arranged.
