BRIDGE STROLLING OUT - IF
you're planning to take a long
stroll across the Delaware Mem
orial Bridgs after it opens this
summer you'd better have a pretty
good excuse.
root traffic across the bridge is
going to be very much restricted
even though it does have a pedes-
trlan walk. AS a matter of fact
an exceptionally good reason will
have to be given to take the three
and half mile trek across the
span
And even if you're driving and
your car breaks down, walking
won't be a problem. John CahaI- !
an. acting general manager of the !
bridge says the State Highway De-
p2rtment has ordered equipment
to provide free towing service in
case of motor vehicle breakdown
Meanwhile, the summer uni
form of bridge attendants has been
selected. 1t includes gray trousers
and shirts, with the insignia of
the state on the cap and shoulders.
The uniform is similar to that
worn by employees of the Motor
Vehicle Department.
Fares for passenger cars and
trucks still are being worked out
However, when the fare system
finally is set up Mr.. Catalan said
preparations will be made to tssue
commutation tickets.
