HC Deb 08 March 1961 vol 636 c460
35. Mr. Gower

asked the Minister of Transport what improvements are planned on road B.4266 between Barry and the village of Bonvilston, in view of the increase of traffic along this road.

Mr. Marples

The widening of Weycock River Bridge is planned by the highway authority the Glamorgan County Council. I cannot say when I shall be able to make a grant towards it.

Mr. Gower

Will my right hon. Friend take into account the fact that this bridge is quite inadequate for the present volume of traffic, which includes a great deal of industrial traffic to the new power station at Aberthaw?

Mr. Marples

Yes, I will.
