In consequence of the numerous defects, a considerable area of
the pitched carriageways of Newington Butts, Draper Street and
Walworth Road was relaid during the year.
The following footway paving works were executed under loan:—
Hampton Street, Steedman Street, Union Road in front of Recreation
Ground.
In connection with the widening of Crampton Street (Improvement)
the footways and carriageway of this street between Hampton
Street and Newington Butts were newly formod; the footways
being paved with 3-in. tooled York and 12 x 6 flat kerb and the
carriageway entirely remade by macadam with 4x7 pitched
channelling. The footways beyond Hampton Street were also
regulated to meet the new lines formed by the improvement.
During the year the work of the trench repairs has been unusually
heavy, owing to the numerous openings in the roads made by the
South Metropolitan Gas Company for laying supplies under the
" penny-in-slot" arrangement.
There has also been an extra number of crossings laid in footways
for private gateway entrances.

Acting Surveyor of Roads.
