The work is finished, except for
some rock excavation in the bed of the harbour, which the contractors have failed to deal with.
The Board have ter¬ minated the contract, with a view to arranging for the exe¬ cution of the unfinished work.
The work has been commenced, and is proceeding satisfac¬ torily.
Considerable progress has been made with the works, which will, it is anticipated, be com¬ pleted in the summer or autumn of 1910.
In addition to repairing the da¬
mage done to the pier head in January, 1908, a further ex¬ tension of the pier was sanc¬ tioned in September, and the work is now in hands.
