COUNTY COUNCIL WORK.
TAR-SEALING,
The Hawke’s Bay County Council has completed the laying of the first coat of tar on the mile section of the Stortford Lodge-Fernhill road, and it is expected that the second application will be put down in a month’s time.
Everything is in readiness for the tar-sealing of the Napier-Taradale road, a distance of about 3| miles. Dumps of metal have been made and barrels of bitumen deposited at. convenient spots, while the road has received the constant attention of the power grader. Th e work of sealing will be commenced immediately the weather takes up.

When completed this will greatly improve the final stages of the journey to the native bush.
