Transit survey near complete at Williams College
Area mass transit survey results are being prepared at Williams College and may be ready by month end. John G. Simson of the Bennington County Regional Commission notes slow return of survey forms but progress in computerizing data for a final run led by Michael Shay of Williams Center for Environmental Studies. Lions clubs promoted the survey with help from service clubs in Northshire and Pownal. If communities contribute to costs, federal funds may support a second survey to assess needed equipment after a Arlington meeting with Louis F. Mraz Jr.
