In detailing the various work to be undertaken by the department the Hon. Minister has made the following statement with reference to Paeroa’ “Paeroa rearrangement: A commencement with this work has already been made. The improvement and stop-banking of the Ohinemuri and Waihou rivers has necessitated raising the railway line over the Ohinemuri River and placing the station farther from the river. At the same time it'is necessary to enlarge the yard, as it will be a junction station of considerable importance when the through line to Tauranga and eastwards is opened, and of still greater importance when the PaeroaPokeno deviation is constructed.”
