STREET RAILWAY WORK PROGRESSING SWIFTLY
East Main St. Will be Reached by End of this Week.
[People’s Press, 17 October 1911]
Providing the weather permits during this week, the work on the street railway, will round the corner of East Main street. Only three weeks have expired since the operations were started, and the work has already reached the Methodist church on Muir street.
Between the M.C.R. and Beatty’s crossing, the track is laid and the road has been levelled up. The rails and ties are laid down as far as Griffith street, and with the exception of a short section at the turn in the road at Beatty’s crossing, where the curved rails are being placed, the road is being put back into condition for driving.
Over sixty men are on the working force. Rainy weather is the only thing that can delay the progress, and if that does not occur the expectation of having cars running on the road within thirty days will be possible.
