Thread: Manawatu Gorge Slip

@Bonecrusher, tend to agree, my first recollection of going through the gorge would have been the late 50s early 60s, Thats a long time ago and it was there long before that, The Ashurst end must have been bridged in the Depression? When they did things like that for employment, such as the long bridge over the Manawatu at Foxton, I remember when they straightened the Ballance end, maybe the 70s? Have we just become soft cocks? Tip the slip into the river, dam it and put in another Hydro to compliment the wind farms?
