COUNTY BALKS
RAIL LINE AS
HIGHWAY

FAIRFAX COURT HOUSE,
Va, Aug. 6.-Guided by an opin-
ion of commemorative Attorney
Paul E. Brown that the county
might be held liable for accidents
on any roads operated by the
county contrary to the State
road laws, the Fairfax county
board Of supervisors yesterday re-
fused request Of the Great
Falls and Old Dominion Road AS
sociation for permission to use the
old right of way of the Great
Falls branch of the Washington
and Dominion Railway for high
way purposes.
Commonwealth'S Attorney
Brown advised the board that the
county would be running risk IN
permitting the use of its property
as a road and might be held liable
for injuries sustained by persons
using the right of way as road.
He further pointed out that al
though the county obtained this
right of way for road purposes,
the Byrd road IaW, which took
away from the county the power
to establish and maintain roads,
prohibited the countyS develop
ment Of the road.
Permission for use Of the road
by citizens, Mr.. Brown concluded.
would be virtually the same as
the county opening the road. and
this is strictly prohibited by the
Byrd law.
Citizens making the request con-
tended that a large section of
the county served by the rail
road before its suspended opera
tions on this branch is now virtu-
ally isolated in winter and rainy
weather. The road association
has also begun a movement to have
the State Highway Department
take some action in developing
the right of way as a road.
