This scheme differs from the original one in that it is proposed not to widen Murray Road at present for the reasons stated, and ultimately only to a width of 50 feet, which is considered adequate for the requirements of public traffic along that road; on the other hand, it is proposed to extend the widening of Queen's Road (to a uniform width of 75 feet) from Arsenal Street to the City Hall, this effecting a junction with Des Vœux Road, which has likewise a width of 75 feet, and to widen Arsenal Street to 75 feet as originally intended.
