College Avenue
Open to Traffic

College avenue, which has been
closed to traffic since. the first Of
June was opened Saturday morning
a concrete roadway having been laid
from the upper railroad crossing to
Highwood street. The contract was
awarded to Green and Wilson of this
city and work was commenced I'M
mediately thereafter.
The new road is Of ample width
and will be greeted with no little en-
thusiasm by the many motorists Of
this city and its vicinity. Up to two
years ago the thoroughfare from Wa
terville to Fairfield was looked upon
as a bugbear but last summer con-
crette was laid from Postoffice square
to the upper railroad crossing. The
work done this year makes it so that
Automobiles going through this city
on their way to the northern part OF
the state will have fine roads all the
way.
Saturday and yesterday 1t seemed
as though practically every motorist
in this part of the state passed over
the new highway and there was a
continual line of cars. The new road
was built at a cost of ss13.000 to the
city and $4,000 to the state.
