HC Deb 11 February 1931 vol 248 c408
66. Mr. VAUGHAN

asked the Minister of Transport if he is arranging for the strengthening and reconstruction of weak bridges on the more important roads throughout the country upon the scale recommended by the Royal Commission on Transport, namely, 1,000 per annum; and whether he can give any estimate of the number of bridges that he hopes will be improved during 1931?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer which I gave on the 2nd February to a similar question by my hon. Friend the Member for Newport (Mr. Walker), of which I am sending him a copy.
