! Work on the new Terryyille high

"st, additional gangs of men and
machinery having been placed in
operation during the past few days.
The plans of the state highway
| department call for the elimination
of the sharp curve west of the An
drew Terry Foundry and it is at this
point where the greatest amount OF
Ia Dor and expense Will be involved
The bank. which at the highest
point, rises to approximately SO feet.
| is now being torn away and thou
sands of tons of dirt Will be hauled
away before the actual work of lay
ing the new pavement can be start
ed. The plans also call for the
widening of the underpass IN the
| center of pequabuck near the
! freight station. At the present time
the highway at this point is too mar
row for two automobiles and a troll
| ley car to pass at the same time and
several accidents have occurred there.
The widening of the underpasA will
also improve the view of autolsts
travelling in both directions
Although no effort has been made
TO defect traffic, many autoists are
travelling between Terryyille and
Bristol over the old stagecoach
| road. which leaves Bristol via Ter
ryville avenue and enters Terryville
near Bullhead street. This road is in
poor condition, however. no repairs
having been made to it this spring
by city forces for the reason that 1t
is TO be made a state aid road The
state highway department has al
ready set aside an appropriation of
$500 for the work and the city
of Bristol has included in this years
budget an appropriation of $1,000
! toward their share of the expense.
Since the work on the new Terry
Vile road started. trolley service on
the Bristol Traction company has
been considerably delayed and the
late arrival of cars in this city have
tended to delay service on the
! Plainville- North Side line. Trolley
officials are now considering the
discontinuance of the hourly con-
nection with cars from Terryville in
| the Bristol center until the delays
| arc overcome.
