52. Mrs. WARD (for Mr. ALAN TODD)asked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been drawn to the unsafe condition of Mill Street canal bridge at Brierley Hill, Staffs; and what steps he proposes to take to assist the local authorities concerned to repair it?
§ Mr. PYBUSMy attention has been drawn to the condition of this bridge, but I have received no application concerning it from the Staffordshire County Council, who are the responsible highway authority, and I am asking what degree of urgency they attach to its reconstruction.
