2005 Connecticut Code - Sec. 13a-132. Alteration of railroad facilities in construction of highway.

      Sec. 13a-132. Alteration of railroad facilities in construction of highway. When it is necessary for the commissioner to construct a highway which intersects or crosses over or under any railroad, said commissioner may order any railroad company to change or alter its existing facilities as required by such construction. The cost of such change or alteration shall be included in the construction costs of such highway.

      (1959, P.A. 46, S. 1; 1963, P.A. 226, S. 132; P.A. 73-675, S. 19, 44; P.A. 75-486, S. 34, 69; 75-568, S. 15, 45; P.A. 77-614, S. 571, 587, 610; P.A. 78-303, S. 85, 136.)

      History: 1963 act replaced previous provisions: See title history; P.A. 73-675 replaced highway fund with transportation fund; P.A. 75-486 replaced public utilities commission with public utilities control authority; P.A. 75-568 deleted reference to payments made from transportation fund; P.A. 77-614 and P.A. 78-303 allowed deletion of reference to approval of public utilities control authority since P.A. 77-614 replaced authority with transportation commissioner and it would be nonsensical for commissioner to approve his own orders.
