WAIMANA GORGE
NO WORK TO BE DONE ON ROAD PRIME MINISTER’S DECISION From Our Own Correspondent OPOTIKI, Today. The Opotiki Railway League has received a letter from the Prime Minister stating that at the present time there is no necessity for the Government to undertake the construction of a new road through the Waimana Gorge. The league had asked the Government to construct the new road preparatory to the commencement of the East Coast railway from Taneatua to Opotiki. The railway route includes the present gorge road which is the main highway between Opotiki and Whakatane.
The Opotiki Chamber of Commerce has written to the Prime Minister asking him to include the new gorge road in his unemployment relief works scheme.
