§ 3569. Highway changed; notice; hearing
When a highway is so located that such railroad cannot be judiciously constructed across or upon the same without interfering therewith, the railroad corporation, with the consent of the Board, may cause such highway to be changed so that such railroad may be constructed on the best site for that purpose. However, such corporation shall put such highway as near as practicable in as good a situation and repair as it was previous to such alteration, under the direction of the Board. Such construction or alteration shall not be made without notice to all parties interested and a hearing before the Board. (Amended 1959, No. 329 (Adj. Sess.), § 39(b), eff. March 1, 1961.)
