There were 14 tenderers, The contract includes four miles through the gorge, but not all the bridges, as expected. The line will : be opened from Napier to Woodville in February. The contract just let on the. Wellington* W.oodvillejine of six miles embraces some of the roughest work on tho whole line. - -
