The report by the engineers engaged on the survey of the new road to Milford Sound in regard to tho location of the tunnel it is proposed to construct is now in the hands of the Minister of Employment, the Hon. A. Hamilton, who is considering it. He stated while in Christchurch that it had not yet been decided whether tho work was definitely to proceed, but an announcement of the Government's intentions would probably bo made shortly. The engineers' report covered both the practicability and the" cost of the scheme. The two proposed routes for the tunnel are the Homer and Gertrude ■Saddles.
