"WHITBY Representative--JAMES HOLDEN Phone, House 15--Office 434 County Council Takes #7 Action in Connection & by + Crossing on Port Perry J Highway * CROSSING CLAIMED TO BE DANGEROUS + Cost of Protection Discussed at Session Held Yesterday Afternoon (By staff Reporter) Nhitby, Jan, 25.--The county . council will communicate with the Canadian Pacific Railway urging ithe railway to take action in con- | nection with the dangerous level . crossing situated on the Oshawa- . Port Perry highway, where the _ road crosses the north Toront ¢ Montreal line. A resolution to this ¢ effect was introduced by R. B. Smith, deputy reeve of East Whit- ~ by, at yesterday's council session. It was pointed out by Mr. Smith , that this crossing was particularly ° dangerous and had been the scene " of many bad accidents because of ,the fact that it was in a railroad ¢ put, where the view was hidden in # both directions on account of curves ! in the track, Reeve John Ross, of # Rast Whitby, also endorsed this ¥ contention and could speak from * + ¢xperience as he had lived close to */the crossing for many years ana * could recall more than one fatality * "which happened there. Mr. Smith's first resolution was ! to have the matter placed before the Board of Railway Commission- ers, but this was objected to by Ex-Warden G. M. Forsyth, The ob- jection was made on the ground that when the county council urg- ¢ ed the railway board to take action | + with the Myrtle crossing on the ¢ Whitby Lindsay highway the coun- 4 ty found that it was faced with an 3 expenditure of over $400 as its «share of erdcting a wig-wag signal, : 'dn spite of the fact that the Whit- by-Lindsay road was a provincial ¢ highway. Mr. Forsyth feared that if the county directed the railway ; board's attention to the crossing y mear Raglan, then it might be let fn for another large expenditure. John Ross, reeve of Thorah, agreed with Mr. Forsyth's contention and 4 ®t the suggestion of these two coun- i willors, Mr. Smith changed his re- &.#olution so that it would be ad- With Level Crossing | Will Ask CPR. to Protect dressed to the Canadian Pacific and not to the Railway Board. The council, however, took the attitude that if it did have to shure in the cost of erecting a warning signal or otherwise reducing the hazard at this point, an expeunui- ture of four or five hundred dol- lars would be merited in order lo protect human life, Engineer D. J. Kean, explained that in the case of the Myrtle crossing, the county bore 40 per cent of 60 per cent of the cost or in other words just 24 per cent of the total cost.
