ROSSALL ST. DEVIATION
£39,000 Scheme Approved
The deviation of Rossall street into Strowan road was estimated to cost £39,000, which included £lB,OOO for compensation, the works committee reported to the City Council last evening. All city ratepayers affected by the scheme had been ad- ' vised, the committee said, and | recommendations had been made for the purchase of two properties which had been offered to the council. i Wairarapa terrace was a boundary road, and as the [section from Leinster road to Strowan road would become part of the new deviation some part of the cost could be assigned to the Waimain County Council, it had been asked to advise two of its ratepayers who were likelv to lose a little 'land for stream diversion. The bridge to Poynder avenue would be rebuilt, and this would cost an estimated £7OOO. This would be subject to the normal bridge replacement subsidy for the National Roads Board. An application was being made to the board for a free grant of £39,000 to do the deviation.
