§ 43. Mr. SHEPHERDasked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been called to the proposed route of the reconstructed road from Beaconsfield to Rickmansworth, which would disturb seriously the historic Friends' meeting house at Jordans, Bucks; and whether, seieng that there is an alternative route which would not have the consequences of the one now proposed, this proposal can be reconsidered?
§ Colonel ASHLEYI am aware that in drafting the town-planning proposals for this area the local authority is considering how best to adapt the roads for future traffic requirements, having regard to imminent building developments. No scheme has yet been submitted to my Department, but should such proposals come before me, I will take care that all practicable alternatives are considered.
