TRAFFIC PROBLEMS
MAGISTRATE’S COMMENT.
(B.v Telegraph—Presn Association)
PALMERSTON NORTH, Aug. 5.
Shunting trains about the Square appears to be one of the reasons for the deviation being wanted, observed Mr J. L. Stout, S.M., during the hearing of a case in the Magistrate’s Court this morning, when a motor-car driver was charged with crossing a railway line in the Square when it was not clear. “Traffic is often held up this way,” added Mr Stout. The railway yards appear to be the trouble. It should not be necessary to have to hold up traffic in the centre of the town. It is certainly very trying to have a goods train shunting up as far as the Monument and stoppnig there for some time.
