A. meeting of the Ngaio Progressive Association was held last evening. Mr. H. L. Cummings presided. A reply was received from the Town Clerk to the complaints made by the association in regard to the tramway service to Thorndon railway station. The letter said it was considered by the tramways committee that the existing service was ample for the traffic offering. It was regretted that delays had occasionally occurred at Lambton Station as a result of shunting operations, but the matter was under consideration with a view to minimising these delays. A letter was received from the Railway Department stating that depressions in the Ngaio station platform had been filled in. The platform would be asphalted during the coming summer. Notification was received from the Town.Clerk that trees were to be plinted in the Trelissick Reserve during the present season.
