"WAVES" ON ROADS
10 THH KDITOB.
&r,—l have read with great interest the remarks made; by the roading expert, Mr. T. W. Patterson, regarding the cause and cure of the "waves" in the Hutt road surface. I am not an engineer but am Btrongly of the opinion that a light roller ought to be passed over the.soft bitumen immediately in front of the heavy roller. This would, I think, give a harder sur- •: face for the heavy roller, which would not then, to the same extent as at present, push the surface in front of the roller. I speak with some little experience of con- i structing lawns, where the same difficulty occurs. 1 am, etc., LIGHT ROLLER. Feilding 16th January.
