Wood Lane and Scrubb Lane. Line of Thoroughfare from

As stated in the last report certain negotiations were in progress
with the owners of land abutting upon this line of thoroughfare
which negotiation the Board is happy to report have been brought to
successful issue and a certain amount of the work has been carried out.
The only portion now remaining to be done is the length of road
across the Scrubbs, for which work the Metropolitan Board of Works
are about inviting Tenders, when this is finished the whole line of
thoroughfare from the Harrow Eoad to Uxbridge Eoad will be
open for traffic.
