IMPROVEMENT NEEDED TO ROAD AT MAKERUA
^ Concern at the consistent flooding of the road at Makerua has been expressed by the Automobile Association's offlcer in Levin, Mr. R. Keenan. The raising of the road at this section for a distance of 80 yards would obviate flood risk at this spot. For many years now this section of the - road has been a source of trouble, as it is alwavs susceptible to flopding. Yesterday morning the road via Shannon was clear, but due possibly to the change in tides or a fresh break in the river bank, the road was again flooded at Makerua, with the result that motorists were required to deviate over a very unsuHable. road.
