At intervals for a number of years construct a past the proposal to Vehicles Ferry has been the subject of discussion in the Colony and the Information available was concen- trated In Sessionel Paper No. 6 of 1928. That paper contains very full details of the whole proposition, though on the financial side I ven- the truffle would have justified a ture to think that a closer study of much brighter picture even then. Since 1928 the question has been more and more often discussed and any feeling of hesitation has been removed by the wide extension of the use of motor cars, by the realisa- tion that the Vehicles Ferry, will also carry passengers and that, therefore, the round-a-bouts will at least pay for the awinga until the Bombay, Marseilles & Lendon.

Government's Decision. The decision reached by the Government after very careful ex- emination, and approved by the Secretary of State, is to undertake the construction of the at once necessary piers and concourse areas on the sites, and, broadly speaking. in accordance with the plans, set out in the Sessional Paper to which I have referred, the sites being on the Hong Kong side the vicinity of Jubilee Street and on the Kowloon hide, the end of Jordan Road. This part of the work it is proposed that the Government should itself under- in due course from the loan account, take, the expenditure to be provided but pending the extension of the loan it is proposed temporarily to plus balances of the Colony.

The total cost of the piers and concourse areas is estimated at $1,300,000 calculated at the current rates of to-day of which sum it is anticipated that $100,000 will be required in the course of the current

It is estimated that two years wil! he required for the completion of the piers and within that period provision has to be made for the Vehicles Ferry boats themselves. designed to carry a maximum of The intention is that they shall be motor cars or some 16-5 seater lorries and other vehicles to occupy the same space and shall also have generous accommodation for passen- gers.

Three such boats will be recessary to maintain a regular ser vice, but the intervals between trips will remain a matter for experience to dictate. The estimated cost of three vehicles and passenger ferry boats as contemplated is $1,300,000. Smaller boats estimated to cast, say, $235,000 each, carrying passengers only, will run between the trips of the larger boats. These estimates are based on $1-179.
