In this simple way the principal artery for motor traffic connecting the northern part of New England with Boston and the South, was opened in the brief space of a month from the date of the fire.
Had the plans of the Metropolitan Division Commission for a permanent concrete steel structure been carried out, this important highway would have been cut off for six months, and possibly longer, thus causing a vast amount of inconvenience and loss to the people in the eastern part of the Commonwealth and of New England.
