New Road Asked in Winsted Area
More than twenty lawmakers and business readers from Litchfield county urged the Legislature to accelerate Route 8 reconstruction. They asked the Roads and Bridges Committee to direct the State Highway Department to rebuild immediately from Route 116 in East Litchfield to Route 44 in Winsted, with a possible extension to the Colebrook town line. Senator Minetto said the project would create jobs in a critical labor area and aid industrial growth, while Rep. Hutton called Winsted the crossroads of Connecticut and emphasized Route 6 as vital to the industrial base. The plan envisions a climate connection from Bridgeport to the Massachusetts turnpike, with Colebrook near the state line.

Trumbull weighs high school site amid gas pipe risk
Washington engineer Gordon Bennett advised against Ehrsam property near a natural gas pipeline as a school site, while finding a Grand Union supermarket nearby could be safer with precautions. The town considers Ehrsam, Howard Randall eight acres, and Snyder properties for a new high school amid safety concerns and a looming March 24 condemnation. Bennett endorsed concrete retaining walls and drainage for pipeline protection at a White Plains road supermarket plan, noting pipeline strength reduces risk but warrants safeguards.
