Bath Merchants Push Rebuilding of Bath Brunswick Highway
Bath business leaders urged Governor Brann and the Executive Council to back the State Highway Commission’s plan to rebuild the existing Bath to Brunswick highway. Merchants along Front Street fear lost trade if traffic continues to reroute via Center and Lincoln streets, while arguments against the King’s Turnpike stress economic impact on Bath and local property. Attorney John P. Carey Jr. says an underpass at Blind Crossing and an overpass near Cook's could be cheaper than a new bridge, making preservation of the present route most economical for Bath.
