An engineer Of the state highway
department was in conference YES
terday with Mayor John f. Wade.
superintendent of Public Works Os-
car Anderson and Foreman Daniel
Donovan in regard to lettering con-
ditions or Broad street, ForestvilIe.
Tho matter of laying a sideway from
the east end of the plant of the Bris-
toll Brass Co., to the center of Forest
vile was talked over and it is pro-
bable that a gravel walk will be laid
during the early part of next sum
mer.
1t is understood that the state now
has under consideration the matter
of widening Broad street as well as
the resurfacing of the road. There
has also been talk of the elimina-
ton of Devitt's crossing by the build
ing of an underpass, and railroad en-
gineers have looked over the situa-
ton and are now engaged on making
plans. These proposed changes
which may become realities within
the next two or three years, are
reasons why a gravel walk is sug-
gested at this time. A suitable foun-
dalton would be laid for the side
walk, however, which would be
available when the permanent walk
| is laid.
Highway officials also have under
consideration the l. ltter of straight
ening the highway at Pierce's bridge.
which would be a real improvement
and reduce the hazard to automo-
bilsts at this point TO a minimum.
! This spot is particularly dangerous
! during the open season at Lake
Compounce and many accidents have
occurred there.
