BAILEY BRIDGES FOR USE ON ROAD TO MILFORD SOUND
(P.A.) DUNEDIN, This Day. Bailey bridges are to be used on the road from the Homer tunnel to Milford in the near future. Two of the larger bridges on the Cleddau Valley road are to be replaced with Baileys, parts of which are now at Monkey Flat awaiting transport to the job. Over the past few months public works men have been working to replace other bridges and culverts on the Milford road, which had reached the stage of being unsafe for transport. The road has been closed to the public for some time, although mail and supplies have been going through for the Milford Hostel and the New Zealand-American Fiordland Expedition at Caswell sound.
