MOTOR TRAFFIC ALONG

BOWEN ROAD

Discussed At Mid Level Residents Meeting

The annual meeting of the Mid-Levels Residents Association was held in the" Board Room of Messrs Shewan, Tomes & Co., Ltd., last evening when Mr. A. L. Shields took the chair.

During the discussion that took place Mr. W. 7. Carroll brought up the question at light motor trafic along Bowen Road and remarked that it was rather strange that motor- cycles (with aide ears) and "Baby" Austins belonging to the Military were allowed on the road when the public were ex- cluded on the grounds that the "road was not strong enough."
