AUCKLAND’S £3.9m FOR MOTORWAYS
Allocation Considered Insufficient
(New Zealand Press Association) AUCKLAND, October 8.
Dissatisfied with its £3.9 million motorways allocation from the National Roads Board for the next three years, the No. 2A District Roads Council will ask the board to raise loans for urban motorway construction.
The council made its decision after the chairman (Mr W. L. Bell) said the grant was insufficient and would mean the motorways programme would have to be over a longer period.
The schoolyard of an elementary school in Syosset, New York was coated with a three-eighths-inch layer of rubber compound to protect children at play.
