Title

Marlborough Builds Roads and Destroys Railroad

What occurred

The rise of automobiles led to less of a need for railroads and eventually the abandonment in 1928 of the Marlborough Street Railway Line. This led to the improvement of roads across the city and a rising of auto-related facilities such as gas stations and auto-shops throughout Marlborough. These roads still exist today.
