HC Deb 07 July 1930 vol 241 c42
85. Mr. THURTLE

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will enter into negotiations with the Surrey County Council and the Southern Railway Company with a view to bridging the level crossing at Sunningdale on the trunk road from London to Aldershot and Southampton, or building a new road which shall be free from this obstruction?

The MINISTER of TRANSPORT (Mr. Herbert Morrison)

The responsibility for the initiation of a scheme for bridging this level crossing rests primarily on the Surrey County Council. I am drawing their attention to my hon. Friend's question, and I am prepared to give careful consideration to any proposal which the council may submit.

Captain WATERHOUSE

Will the hon. Member give us an assurance that any steel that is required will be of British origin?

Mr. MORRISON

I hardly think that question immediately arises. I have no indication yet that the county council are going to build a bridge.
