Ramp dispute over public works and private use at showgrounds
Mr Lonergan and Dr Parnell pressed ramps for tractor loading and road sealing, noting past delays. A ramp at the showgrounds existed but others resented its use. The Public Works Department sought unloading space for a roller but was moved from showgrounds to the railway. A ramp was estimated at £50 and the proposal was referred to the 1954-55 estimates.
