Construction on the job was begun in 1956 and completed in l958. More than 150 men, including engineers and lalmorers were needed on the job. The Kittanning St. part of the By-Pass proved to be a heaclaehe-to-the-se..residr.11ts-irrthat area. Much ' x arguing was done about getting lights on both sides of the railroad to facilitate traffic. Neither the State nor the Boro wanted to pay for the cost of the lights. ln 1969 the traffic signals were put into operation with both State and Boro sharing the cost. But even with the lights, traffic is still congested and plans are under way to relieve the problem. 7I ' .tlmiggaraia.'..s1.:inr..u,LtLntu1m.lsr A ' ' U - ' - ,1...,,. - - - ,. -,-....... ,'kZ,,,gy.1-:-q:,,',,,,,,,V ., ..,, In ,hm-W-Q
