ADOPT NEW RULES FOR MILEORD PIKE Lanes for Tracks and Passenger Gars Laid Out Harttord, June 33 — Every effort to eliminate the danger of accident on the Connecticut highway system and particularly upon that section of the Boston Post road known as the Miltord turnpike, which for years because of its heavy traffic, has been one of the most dangerous rot in the state, will be made by the state highway department summer, according$o an announce- ment made today by Highway Com- missioner John A. Macdonald. In inaugurating its campaign to commrecial traffic on the New Haven-New York highway and these | rules will be enforced-by the state police department. State police co- operation was assured when Commis- sioner Macdonald and Superinten- dent Hurley of the atate police con- terred on the matter this week. The Post road between New York and New Haven lends itself particu- larly to traffic regulation because of | the completion ¢ the widening pro- cess wr'~h has permitted two lanes of traftic in each directiop. The tour sections of pavement form four natural lanes of travel, distinctly marked. It is upon these four lanes that the first rule is based. Com- mercial or truck traffic will be com- pelled to travel in the right hand or | outside lanes, thus leaving the cen- ter lanes free for the more rapldly moving passenger vehicle traffic. Passenger vehicles will also be fore- | ed to travel in the outside sections unless they are occupied by trucks. necessary for passenger vehicles to swing over to the left hand side of the road in order to pass slow mov- ing vehicles and the danger of acci- dent, will therefore be greatly re-| duced. . Must Park Off Pavement A second rule will require stand- | ing mator vehicles of all descriptions to be parked entirely off the pave- ment, leaving the outside lanes free for traffic and eliminating the dan- ger of crashes and sharp turn-outs to aveid accident. Due to the recent pumber of ac- cidents to pedestrians on the Post road. It has been recommended by Commissionér Macdonald that all persons who find it necessary to walk on the highway stay on the should- ers of the road wherever possible and also walk on,the left hand side of the road so that they will face oncoming traffic and will be able to step off the road when necessary to avoid accident to themselves. In order to warn all drivers of the turnpike rulings large signs are being prepared by the highway de- partment and will be erected on the Post road between New Haven and Milford, the most dangerous section of the highway, as soon as they haye been sanctioned as to form and color by the U. S. Standard Sign board. The signs will be erected at quarter mile intervals and will be gradually extended to the New York state line between Greenwich and Port Ches- ter. ‘Warning Truck Drivers The department of state police is slready at work striving to improve traffic conditions on the highways of the state by means of similar| 3 rules. All drivers of commercial ve- hicles are being stopped by state po- licemen and are being furnished with the following communication: “Each year there are more and more vehicles being operated over the highways of this state. The heavy summer traffic will soon be- gin. “The police problem of moving this heavy traffic safely and expedi- tiously is becoming increasingly difticult. The operators of commer- clal vehicles can be of great assist- ance in enabling police officers to perform their duties efficiently. Within the past two years there has been a very noticeable improvément shown by drivers of this class of motor vehicles in observing the rights of others to the use of the This way‘to get clothes whiter is so safe!
