repairs to public highways.
The expense of the carriage-way paving this year somewhat
exceeds that of either of the previous two years, owing,
principally to the substitution of Mountsorrel Stone in Cockspur
Street and Trafalgar Square for macadam road, while
the expenditure for macadamized roads has been less.
The following will show the cost of the principal works
in detail.—Messrs. Mowlem and Co. have been the contractors:—
