 Please Motorists

Motorists who have occasion to travel over the Boston Post road be- tween Bridgeport and Norwalk, will unanimously endorse the State High way Commissioners decision to make repairs at two points on the thor oughfare. Nash's corner in West port is one section of the road that will receive much needed attention. The curve, which is now dangerously narrow will be considerably widened, and 800 feet of pavement will be laid The other section to be re- paired is at Peat Swamp, near the Norwalk-We Westport boundary line. More than a mile of pavement will be laid at this point.
 The Commissions plan also calls for roadway improvement at the new Washington bridge. Both the east and west approaches of the bridge wdll be paved with concrete, extend ing 4,27O feet on the west side 60 connect with the Hassam pavement in Stratford. and 1,460 feet on the eastern approach to join the con- crete highway in Devon. The com pletion of these projects will result in a first class road from New Haven to Norwalk.
 Bids for the work will be received by Highway Commissioner Bennett, in his office at Hartford, until two o'clock next Tuesday afternoon.
