HC Deb 28 February 1921 vol 138 c1400
63. Viscount CURZON

asked the Minister of Transport when the classification of roads throughout the country will be complete, and when he expects to be able to make any announcement?

Sir E. GEDDES

The preliminary classification of roads in England, Wales, and Scotland is practically complete, though some matters of detail have still to be discussed with a few highway authorities. An announcement with regard to the contribution from the Road Fund towards the cost of maintenance of classified roads will be made before the commencement of the next financial year.

Viscount CURZON

When does the right hon. Gentleman expect to be able to give the details of the classification?

Sir E. GEDDES

I think my answer covers that point.
