§ 6. Sir H. CRAIKasked the First Commissioner of Works whether it is proposed to alter and relay the roadway running to the north of the Serpentine in Hyde Park, the expediency of which alteration is very doubtful; and whether, in any case, the expenditure of money and labour on such work might be postponed for the present and during the continuance of the War?
§ Sir A. MONDThe answer is in the negative. The road will shortly be sprayed with tar, as this treatment has been proved to be economical in the case of macadam roads.
§ Sir H. CRAIKBut there is no really large operation being carried out?
§ Sir A. MONDNo, nor in contemplation.
