Hundred Unemployed to Work at Cambridge
WIDENING ROAD ROTORUA HIGHWAY From Our Own Correspondent CAMBRIDGE, Wednesday. A gang of 50 men from the ranks of Auckland’s unemployed has started work on the Rotorua main highway, about seven miles from Cambridge. The men are cutting back corners, widening the road generally, and straightening the tortuous stretch of road from Rotorua side of the Karapiro factory to the Horahora crossroads. The road was surveyed by the Public Works Department some time ago and the straightening of the road will eventually remove what has been a nightmare to motorists in the past. The gang will be increased to 100 immediately.
