The Commission does not wish to indiente precisely what changes should be made as the subject. is naturally one for negotiation with the public transport companies. As; illustrating the-intention of this recommendation, the following three examples are submitted:—
(a) Tramway route No. 6 is a circular route between Canton Road and the Railway Station, It is suggested that this be replaced by a. railless route erossing the Soochow Creek by Szechuen Road Bridge Chapoo Road Bridge. This would give relief: to Garden Bridge and would enable the track in Canton Road to oe! removed.
'Tramway route No, 1 could be diverted from' Garden Bridge by Soochow Road—erossing the Soochow Creek by Chapoo Road Bridge or Szechuen Road Bridge.
'The Bubbling Well. tramway' terminus could be rearranged either by moving the track a distance to. the East or by making the loop by Yuyuen and Avenue Roads instead of by Bubbling Well Road.
'Careful examination might fina other moans of relieving the Gavden Bridge, of utilizing the new bridges. over the Soochow Creek, and of avoiding the present over-concentration on the Bund. Any relief to to the service on' North Soochow Road would be of benefit to. the General Hospital, Advantage should also be taken of any opportunity to replace single track tramway routes by double track, There is an urgent need for through omnibus and tramway services to the French Concession arid between the densely populated Chinese districts on the North and South of the Foreign Settlements, 'A request should be made to. ths French Municipal Council to. ¢o-operate with the Council with view to instituting @ through traraway service from the North Station vid the Boulevarg des Deux Repub-Uiques to the French Bynd. It would be advantageous if this service could take the form of a circular route to accommodate the heavy! traffic between the North Railway' Station and the Chinese Citf. with out change of vehicle. As the tran: ways in the Settlement are generally worked with trailers, each terminus should be arranged as a loop.
