§ 14. Sir A. Meyerasked the Minister of Transport whether the lighting of the Chiswick-Langley section of the M.4 will be reinstated in the road programme; and when work will commence.
§ Mr. SwinglerMy right hon. Friend intends to seek tenders for lighting the section between the Chiswick viaduct and London Airport later this month, and she hopes it may be possible to place the contract in the spring for completion before next winter.
§ Sir A. MeyerDoes this mean that this will come back into the queue in the same place in the queue but at a later period of time?
§ Mr. SwinglerThis means that this is in the queue and, as I said, my right hon. Friend will seek tenders and we intend to have this scheme completed before next winter. The hon. Gentleman will know that it is a special scheme. It is not inexpensive; it will cost £125,000, but we think that on safety grounds it is justified.
