Fatal railroad crossing to be eliminated near Greenly
County commissioners move to replace the hazardous crossing southeast of Greenly with a bypass road. Land acquired from Joseph and Katherine Branner will form a quarter mile link to a new north-south route, reducing traffic and preventing future crashes involving two children. The project, described by County Commissioner Mik Yard Ewing, aims to complete the elimination as part of ongoing county road improvements in December 1961.
