MOTORING INTERESTS ♦ . WELLINGTON AUTOMOBILE CLUB TRAFFIC AND ROADS IN AND 'ABOUT CITY. The Wellington Automobile Club held its monthly meeting yesterday afternoon, the president (Mr. C. M. Banks) in the chair. A further batch of 29 now members was elected. In reference to the road around Point Halswell, now closed, the Town Clerk wrote stating that negotiations were now in hand for the City Council to take over the road from the Defence Department. A considerable amount of aurvey had to be done before the transfer could take place. Members of the committee expressed the opinion that the reply did not indicate that the City Council was actually doing anything in the matter, and it was* decided to write again, asking for an approximate date for the re-opening of the roadl. The Town Clerk wrote further to the effect that the rule of the road was to be strictly enforced in Jervois quay (tho club had complained of slowly moving traffic blocking the whole road); that the weight of motor-lorries laden was to be restricted to 10 tons, and the overall width to eight feet; that loads must be roped in future; and that all vehicles, Blow-moving or otherwise, must carry tail lights The committee decided to send a letter expressing appreciation cf the City Council's action in so promptly giving effect to the suggestions recently put forward by the dub on these matters. The president (Mr. C. M. Banks) and Mr. F. Goldberg were appointed delegates to represent the . club in connection with the proposed Wellington gala, but it was pointed out that the committee bad no'intention of asking members of the club to provide anything in the way of a free taxi service during the gala. Advice was received from the Motor Traders' Association that the matter of co-operating in a motor reliability trial in Wellington had been referred to the Wellington branch of the association, and stating that the motor trade generally was keenly interested in such trials.
