Committee Recommends Trolleys Be Brought Back In Bridgeport
A long Traffic Commission report to Mayor Wilson urges action by the Board of Aldermen and the legislature to resume trolley service and set routes to remove trolleys from heavy streets while exploring fare adjustments. It recommends a Bridgeport district as an independent unit, municipal control over fares and routes, and a new bus approach with a permanent transportation commission to regulate schedules, safety, and revenue sharing.
