Delegation led by Bentley and R. Hunter of the South-West Co operative Dairy Farmers and Walpole residents Fr Thompson J St Amos and L V Dawson urged a twelve mile road linking the Weld River area to the Normalup Manjimup route. The proposed link would cut travel to Manjimup by about 35 miles, boosting cream and butter movement and enabling Walpole to become a regional shopping centre. The board called for more route options and data before decision.
