The erection of strong fences on dangerous sections of the road over the 2720 ft.-high Turnngakuma hill, on the Napier-Taupo main highway, which was commenced some time ago, is being extended considerably, with the result that the possibility of vehicles meeting with serious mishaps on steep inclines or difficult curves is greatly lessened. The fences consist of stout white concrete posts and thick steel wire rope, and stand about 3ft, high. The strength of the fences is indicated by the fact that it is stated that they will withstand the full force of a heavy motor lorry. Let "POLIFLOR” polish your floors. The easy to apply, antiseptic polish that gives a lasting shine.*
