HC Deb 20 April 1932 vol 264 c1464
17. Mr. GROVES

asked the Minister of Transport whether he can state the estimated cost and life of stone setts, asphalte, and wood blocks, respectively, for road surfacing in London and the Metropolis?

Mr. PYBUS

As the respective cost of these materials is influenced by the specifications adopted, while the life depends upon the character of the traffic and other variable conditions, I regret that the information cannot be summarised in the manner desired by the hon. Member.
