MR. GIBSON BOWLESI beg to ask the First Commissioner of Works whether he can now say when the proposed road from the Mall to Charing Cross will be opened for public use?
§ THE FIRST COMMISSIONER OF WORKS (Mr. SHAW LEFEVRE, Bradford, Central)said, the road could not be made until the completion of the second block of the Admiralty extension buildings, which had not yet been commenced, and until the last of the houses in Spring Gardens now occupied by the Admiralty staff had been removed, which could not take place for six or seven years.
