HL Deb 02 November 2004 vol 666 c29WA
Lord Baker of Dorking

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What proposals they have received from the Highways Agency to improve the A27 between Lewes and Polegate. [HL4516]

Lord Davies of Oldham

A scheme to improve the A27 at Beddingham was added to the Highways Agency's targeted programme of improvements in March. The next steps for this scheme will be the publication of draft orders under the Highways Act followed by the appointment of a contractor under the Highways Agency's early contractor involvement scheme.

The Highways Agency has completed its studies of options at Selmeston and Wilmington on the A27 and a report is nearing completion.
