Sir W. de FRECE (for Sir NEWTON MOORE)asked the Minister of Transport the present position of the scheme for the arterial road to Chertsey; and whether he is now able to justify the hope expressed to a delegation of local authorities which he received on 25th May, namely, that work on the road would probably he commenced by October. 1027?
§ Colonel ASHLEYA section of he new Chertsey Road in Chiswick is already completed, including the bridge over the railway—to all of which works assistance has been given from the Road Fund. Elsewhere land acquisition is in progress, but as far as actual works are concerned, I can take no decision until the Report of the Royal Commission on Cross-River Traffic in London has been presented and considered.
