Sec. 13a-89. Appeal to commissioner from posted weight restriction. Any person may appeal to the commissioner from the restriction of the use of any bridge imposed
by the posting of a maximum weight notice as provided in section 13a-121. Upon such
appeal the commissioner shall inspect such bridge and may, after due notice thereof to
all parties in interest and hearing thereon, order the authority having control of such
bridge to increase its capacity to such extent as he finds public convenience and necessity
require. If such authority fails to make such repairs or reconstruction as are necessary
so to increase the capacity of such bridge within sixty days after receiving notice from
the commissioner to do so, the commissioner may so repair or reconstruct such bridge
and the authority having control of such bridge shall be liable for the cost of such repair
or reconstruction.
