Public Service Commission Bumps Grade Crossing Plan
The Public Service Commission dismissed a 254 resident complaint against Lehigh and New England Railroad for relocating highways and building a subway to extend tracks. The judge ruled changes occurred before 1914 and that restoring grade crossings is not desirable. The commission also adjourned and announced upcoming large hearings on mergers, electric cases, and other matters. Ex-senators Hoke and Thompson were noted visiting.
