HC Deb 27 January 1953 vol 510 c834
34. Mr. Anthony Greenwood

asked the Minister of Works what steps are being taken to repair the carriageway at the eastern end of St. James's Park, in view of its dangerous and undignified condition.

Mr. Eccles

The surface of Horse Guards Approach Road is patched, but I do not regard it as dangerous. As soon as repairs to underground services at present in progress are complete, the carriageway will be resurfaced. This work will be completed before June.

Mr. Greenwood

Will the right hon. Gentleman come with me to inspect the potholes at the north end of the road, some of which are three inches deep?

Mr. Eccles

Yes, Sir.

Viscount Hinchingbrooke

Could the red surfacing material in the Mall be used so that there can be uniformity?

Mr. Eccles

Yes, Sir.
