§ 52. Sir G. Sinclairasked the Minister of Transport if she will reconsider the recent decision not to accept as a principal road B2032, the Pebble Hill link between the A25 and the South Orbital road.
§ Mr. SwinglerNo, Sir, not so far as the existing B2032 is concerned. But the status of a possible Pebble Coombe Hill diversion will be considered in the light of the scheme to be made for the South Orbital Road between Godstone and Leatherhead.
§ Sir G. SinclairWill the Parliamentary Secretary bear in mind that if there is to be no Government help for a classified road between Pebble Hill and the A.25, there may be a burden of £1.2 million expenditure on Surrey County Council?
§ Mr. SwinglerAs the hon. Gentleman knows, the draft scheme for this part of the South Orbital is about to be published, and, in the light of that, we shall have to consider the connecting roads very seriously. It is most likely that that will alter the situation and I think that the hon. Gentleman will be satisfied with the result.
