I may note that as Trava is now here three fourths of the road opened for traffic, and the remainder up to the extreme West limit of the City is under Contract or in execution, I think the time has arrived when some definite understanding should be initiated for that portion of the sea front line opposite the Naval and Military ground, the non completion of which not only injures the general conveniences of that Road.
