LESS MONEY FOR HIGHWAYS WORKS
NEED FOR ECONOMY SUBSIDIES TO LOCAL BODIES Press Association. WELLINGTON, Wednesday. Tentative figures in connection with the annual estimates submitted at the monthly meeting of the Main Highways Board indicate that a considerable reduction will have to be made in the amount applied for by local authorities, for expenditure during the forthcoming year on constructional works. The total cash available for this purpose will be £550,000, which can only be obtained by transferring £350,000 from the Revenue Fund, while applications have been received for a sum of over £900,000. Only a very small proportion of the new roads recommended to be brought within the scope of the board’s operations are to be accepted.
