Connecticut General Statutes Title 13A. Highways and Bridges § 13a-131. Alteration of highway made unsafe by railroad occupation

The superior court for the judicial district in which is located any highway, or any portion thereof, taken for railroad purposes by any corporation, unless such highway or portion thereof is in a city or borough which has control of its highways, or has been constructed since such railroad, may, upon the petition of any party interested, served upon such company as other civil process, appoint a committee of three to inquire whether such highway or portion thereof is unsafe for travel by reason of such railroad, or whether any alteration of such highway or the construction of a new highway is thereby rendered necessary for the public safety and convenience. Such committee shall hear the parties and report its opinion thereon to said court, which may make any requisite order in the premises; and, if it orders any such alteration or construction and such company refuses to comply with such order, such town shall alter or construct such highway and may recover the expense thereof from such company.
