HC Deb 15 November 1967 vol 754 cc430-1
21. Mr. Leslie Huckfield

asked the Minister of Transport when she will announce details of the widening and realignment of the A444 and A47 in the borough of Nuneaton.

Mr. Carmichael

On the A47 trunk road draft proposals for a realignment between Abbey Road and Leicester Road have been published but are not yet finalised. On the A444 principal road the announced programme includes the Bedworth by-pass and its extension to Coton Arches. Details are the responsibility of the Warwickshire County Council, as highway authority for this principal road.

Mr. Huckfield

Is my hon. Friend aware that that reply will be welcomed by my constituents, especially in view of the planning difficulty, particularly the building of the school, which has caused difficulties in the past?
