§ 76. Mr. BARKERasked the Minister of Transport if he is aware of the dangerous state of a portion of the main highway betwen Brynmawr and Blaenavon; that the Nantyglo and Blaina Urban District Council are unable, through financial straits, to repair this road; that persons using vehicular traffic over this road are continually complaining of its dangerous condition; and will he have this matter investigated at the earliest moment and see that the road is made safe for public use?
§ Colonel ASHLEYI am aware that the length of road in question is in a bad state, and I am at present considering what steps can be taken to ensure that the necessary repairs are carried out by the responsible highway authorities. I am fully acquainted with the financial circumstances of many of the local authorities in South Wales.
