Modern road making plant urged by Guyra Council
The Guyra Council discussed replacing horses with motor road-making equipment and approved a plan to establish a fund from revenue for future purchases. Dr Dettmann warned the quoted £1400 annual horse costs are accurate and noted machines could be used constantly, reducing idle time. The council anticipates a surge in demand for modern plant as Allied Works Council gear curtailed local equipment. Thorn leads the queue for priority access.
