way, London Road, as the most economical and efficient mann
of repaving the Carriageway of this most important thoroughfar
The repairs that have been done from time to time in the London.
Road have been unsatisfactory, and the repairs that are now needs
will involve a considerable cost. If a similar Contract were adopted
with the Wood Paving Company for London Road as in t???
Borough High Street, it will be very little in excess of the cost
relaying, and the old Granite Cubes will be available for paving
side streets where the traffic is not heavy. The first instalme???.
to the Company will be payable twelve months after the
tion of the work (about £400). Against this would be the value
the Old Cubes, which may be dressed and laid by the Vestry
workmen.
The Vestry's workmen relaid the Paving on the southe
side of the carriageway Old Kent Road, from Darwin Street
to Kinglake Street, at a cost of 1/2½ per square yard. It will
necessary without delay to relay the Carriageway Paving on t
northern side of the road from Waleran Buildings to Boundary.
The Brunswick Rock Asphalte Paving Company have la??
1,191 square yards of Asphalte in the Parish during the past year.
