CONDITION OF ROADS
HOLIDAY INFORMATION A.A. PATROL’S REPORT The surfaces of all the macadam roads in the district are being kept in good condition by the frequent use of graders and all is being done to make touring pleasant for motorists, according to a statement made this morning by the resident A.A. patrol, Mr. G.
