HARBOR WORKS FOR TIMARU,

Sir John Coode's report recommpnds the corabination of an artificial reef formed oil blocks of concrete each of 40 tons weight, deposited in a pellmell form from barges, and carried 4ft. abovo the high water of spring tides. The reef to be nearly parallel to the coast line, and 1,300 ft. from low water mark, and end on to the south-east sea The H!?9i£°? pro . heU^ asl !f tercd llaibOT and wharf, with 21ft of watorat low tide; thebreakwater, or solid structure, commencing at a distance of 900 ft from the land, while the intervening space is to be spanned by an open iron viaduct, to admit of the passage of the shingle along the shore. The position of the proposed harbor is nearly opposite the Government Lauding Service, extending towards Caroline iiav ■ and the iron jetty is to start from 1 ho point of the' cliff juat to the uortb of the landing place Inside the nef a quay or harbor wall U> be built 400 ft Ion;?, the top of which is to be yft above wator The quay to be connected with the viaduct by timber staging. By means of these works l lk r f ;e vessels would be in perfect safety in all states of weatli-r having 21ft water at low tide, and could discharge and load cargo directly in connection with the railWay system of the Province. The cost of these works is estimated at L 240,000, while to complete the design so as to accommodate an indefinitely increased trade would cost L 790.000.
