TRAMWAY ROUTES
A correspondent would like to know why, although most of tho tramJine from Hataitai to lvilbirnic is duplicated, a short section from Wellington-road towards the Presbyterian Church is etill single line? The question was put to the Mayor. From him it was gathered that, while it is desirable that the whole line should be duplicated, yet as there was no great, urgency for this particular bit of work it would remain in abeyance: The recent duplication of the line beyond had to be done in order that the timetable might be observed. The present, was no time for undertaking any work that could conveniently wafi. Why, too, the correspondent asked, would Hataitaians be compelled to go to Lyall Bay via. Constable-street when the'new linking up was opened? They will not, said the Mayor, _ because they can change at Kilbirnie with a Lyall Bay car. Feeder wires arc now being suspended on the new aerial line from Majoribanks-strect to Constable-street.
