HC Deb 05 August 1924 vol 176 c2735
36. Mr. BROAD

asked the Minister of Transport when it is intended to proceed with the construction of the section of the North Circular Road to connect Essex and Middlesex; whether he is aware that a great extent of this road is completed and is waiting for this connecting link; and whether he is aware that much heavy traffic from East to West has to traverse the City in consequence of the lack of adequate bridges and roads crossing the River Lee?

Mr. GOSLING

Tenders are being invited for the construction of this part of the North Circular Road, and the work is to go forward this autumn as one of the schemes to which the London County Council is contributing as a means of absorbing unemployed from the administrative county of London.
