“NO MAN’S LAND.”
, •' (To the Editor.)Sir. —There is a sp<sion of road between the Railway Station and the end of; Cobden. Bridge that -seems to be lost to view, as far as those who do the necessary repairs, are concerned. It evidently does not belong to the.;Railway Department or the Greyhiouth Borough Council, for neither body is attending to the. necessary repairs. The railway line is now above the road in j several places to the height of three inches. This is a menace to human life,, especially to those riding bicycles or motor bikes. I saw two men thrown off their machines, due to the wheel striking the line. Someone will be testing the ownership of this road, when some unfortunate rider is thrown and breaks a leg or arm. . /The, stones that were thrown on the road some few weeks back can be gathered up off the footpath, and this will make the path more convenient for the pedestrians who now prefer to take the road instead of the footpath. I am, etc., — “STITCH IN TIME.’ ’
