§ 3. Mr. Hector Hughesasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will make a detailed statement on the progress of the work of reconstruction of the Bridge of Don, Aberdeen, indicating how much has been done, and how much remains to be done; and if he is in a position to state when the work will be completed.
§ Mr. Henderson StewartWork is proceeding satisfactorily and so far amounts to about 15 per cent. of the contract, which provides that the work must be completed in thirty-two months from 1st May, 1956.
§ Mr. HughesIs the hon. Gentleman aware of the complaints about the danger to pedestrians caused by the condition of the footways, and the demand for some system of control lights in order to protect pedestrians until the work is completed?
§ Mr. StewartYes, Sir. I gather that there is a point there, and it is in hand.
