HIMATANGI-SANDON ROAD
DISCUSSION OF SEALING. (From Our Own Correspondent.) FOXTON, Jan. 15. No contract has yet been accepted by tho Manawatu County Council for the tarsealing of the first portion of the Ilima-tangi-Sandon main highway. The Manawatu County Council met various contractors at Sandon last week, when a new method of penetration was discussed and it is possible that this new method will be applied to this portion of tho highway. If so, there is a possibility that the bitumen plant at Himatangi will be put into use again, although the work will still be in tho nature of a “mix in place” as obtained on the • Himatangi-Rangiotu highway. The proposed new work is to commence at Himatangi and proceed north.
