HAURAKI BRIDGE.
SIGNS OF PROGRESS. The first visible signs of the commencing of work on the Haurakl bridge at Kopu are now materialising. Workmen are busy erecting the huts for the workers. Three of these, will be placed close to the ferry approach, and the remainder are situated in Queen Street, close to the old dairy factory site. A cottage is also being ■ erected for the caretaker of the plant, and it is evident that within a month a gang of men will commence operations. Pipiroa Ferry. The builder of the punt_ Mr Harvey, has finished his work on the punt for the Pipiroa ferry, and it only requires the installation of an engine to make it ready for service. The delay in this is causing some comment, especially as the approaches are ready.
