§ Mr. MarplesIn the longer term, the answer will lie in the London to Basingstoke motorway, with dual carriageways onwards from Basingstoke.
The route of the motorway is now being surveyed. Meanwhile many improvements are being made or planned on A.30, A.33 and A.31. The construction of dual carriageways between Ringwood and Ferndown has already begun.
