(6) Canton Through Road

Increasing traffic is thought to be

inevitable, which will be remunerative both directly and

at strengthening and widening the existing road and will

effect large economies in maintenance expenditure in future

years. Included in the estimate is the cost of developing

a new Government quarry on the mainland.
