A contract having been entered into for paving the carriageway of
Bethnal Green Road, between White Street and the junction of Bethnal
Green Road with Cambridge Road, the work is now progressing.
A clause was inserted in the Great Eastern Railway Company's Act of
1870, binding the Company to pave under all newly formed arches and
bridges belonging to them. A portion of this work has been carried out,
and arrangements made with the contractor for its completion.
An arrangement has also been made for payment, by the Great
Eastern Railway Company, of the sum of £264 to the Vestry for old
carriageway paving left in St. John Street.
The following is a list of streets where paving works have been
performed during the past year by men employed by the Vestry.
