Description

The Manawatu Gorge road looking west. A line of traffic waits for west-bound vehicles to pass the temporarily controlled section of the highway. The two bluffs shown here were removed to provide 50,000 yards of earthwork material for the Ballance Bridge built across the Manawatu River in 1971.
