COOPER’S ROAD
Sir,—l wish to draw attention to the shocking state of Cooper’s road, between Hampton road and Birchfield avenue. Every day for several weeks some cars have been bogged in the mud or have had Io be hauled out of the drains on either side. Surely something can be done to make the road—our only access—safe and useable.—Yours, etc., A RESIDENT. May 15. 1950.
[“The responsibility for the present condition of the road is on the contractor for the laying of the sewer.” said the county clerk of the Waimairi County Council (Mr H. S. Ferguson). “However, the council has taken stops to ensure the contractor reinstates .the road to its original condition.’’]
