WHAU BRIDGE DELAY
TWO PLANS NOW BEING PREPARED BRICK CULVERT SUGGESTED Two plans for a new bridge over the Whau on the Great North Road are in course of preparation. That of the Public Works Department is practically completed, and the other is that of the New Lynn Borough Council. The latter plan provides for a large brick span culvert as an alternative to a concrete bridge. There has been considerable delay over the decision in regard to the renewal of the Whau bridge, and a year has passed since a conefrence of local bodies decided that a new structure should be erected. Questions relating to the apportioning of costs have yet to be settled and, possibly, this may cause further delay. Tenders will be called for alternative designs, and it Is hoped that a mutually satisfactory arrangement will bo arrived at.
