HC Deb 19 April 1967 vol 745 c565
51. Mr. Gresham Cooke

asked the Minister of Transport if she will provide a temporary metal flyover, similar to that erected in eight days on the A13 London-Tilbury Road, at the junction of the A315 and the Cromwell Road Extension to relieve traffic pressure on the Hogarth roundabout.

Mr. Swingler

Yes, Sir. Arrangements are in hand for a temporary flyover at this roundabout.

Mr. Gresham Cooke

Is the hon. Gentleman aware that his reply will be appreciated, because this roundabout is becoming a tremendous bottleneck for Richmond and Twickenham traffic and traffic on the M4 to South Wales?

Mr. Swingler

We are proceeding as rapidly as possible. There has been a statutory objection to the compulsory purchase order, but we hope to be able to overcome this now.
