HC Deb 18 December 1928 vol 223 c2803
12. Colonel CROOKSHANK

asked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been drawn to a scheme for the construction of a motor road over Wrynose and Hard Knott, in Lakeland; and whether he proposes to make a contribution towards the cost?

Colonel ASHLEY

I have seen references to this project in the Press, but have received no application from any local authority in respect of it. I should not regard the proposal favourably, and have no reasons to suppose that the views of the county councils concerned differ from my own.
