§ 51. Sir W. Smithersasked the Minister of Supply the cost of the road works on the road from Halstead Fort terminating at the "Polhill Arms": and what useful purpose they serve.
§ Mr. SandysThis road links the Ministry of Supply Establishments with the main London-Sevenoaks road. Repairs and improvements, costing about £22,000, have become necessary owing to the large increase in traffic. The fact that this road joins the main road at the "Polhill Arms" is without significance.
§ Sir W. SmithersIs the Minister aware that there is a deep impression in the district that much too much money, manpower and materials are being devoted to works which are controlled by the Government or by nationalised industry, and that this crossing, which is for Government lorries, is the laughing stock of the district?
