The work has now extended as far as Macao Road, a distance of over three miles from the Whangpoo, and the improvement in the condition of this important waterway is mark ed and is of great public value
Further Dredging.
A work of considerable public in- Lerest, commenced during the year is the construction of a public wharf of 700 feet frontage to the whangpoo just west of Yangtze- poo Creek. The structure allows for dredging to a depth of 10 or 1 feet at low water, which is thought sufficient for the largest lighters. A width of 150 feet is proposed for the wharf which will te connected? with Yungtsapor Rond by two public roads. Tho interior area has been raised with dredged mud pumped ashore by the Whangpoo Conservancy Board and until this has consolidated, the surfacing of the wharf and road areas will be of a temporary
