Coming to thoroughfares, we see that a sum of $150,000 is ear- marked for new roads in Kowloon and that the extension of Corona- tion Road through the hill is to involve a sum of $30.000. For the road to the China Light and Power Company's new station the total estimate is $50,000; it is estimated that the expenditure to the end of this year will be $10,000, and it is intended to spend the remaining $40,000 on this work next year.
