HL Deb 01 June 1998 vol 590 cc11-2WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they plan to fund the park and ride car park in the vicinity of Old Sarum which is proposed by Salisbury District Council; and, if so, what account they have taken of local objections. [HL2004]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions (Baroness Hayman)

No specific funds have yet been allocated to this scheme but careful consideration will be given to any future bid for funding the Salisbury transport package received under the transport policies and programme bidding process. A public inquiry will be held on 9 June to hear objections to the draft compulsory purchase and site roads orders relating to the park and ride site.
