RIVER TEES (BRIDGE, MIDDLESBROUGH). (Hansard, 29 January 1929)

HC Deb 29 January 1929 vol 224 c752 752

§ 27. Miss WILKINSON
asked the Minister of Transport what is the position with regard to the projected bridge over the River Tees at Middlesbrough?

§ Colonel ASHLEY
I understand that on the 13th December last, at a conference of the public bodies concerned, a resolution was passed recommending the construction of a bridge rather than a tunnel.

§ Miss WILKINSON
Is the Ministry of Transport doing anything to expedite this project?

§ Colonel ASHLEY
It is for the local authorities to consider this project, and then, if they wish to construct the bridge, to put forward an application to the Ministry.
