§ 23. Mr. Douglasasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will have a survey undertaken of the present level of traffic using the Kincardine Road Bridge.
Mr. Edward TaylorA traffic census was carried out at Kincardine Bridge in August as part of the normal arrangements for obtaining information about traffic volumes.
§ Mr. DouglasI welcome the Minister's reply, but would he not agree that those figures show an increase in the amount of traffic using this bridge, and that therefore the possibility of re-siting it ought to be considered in view of the economic development of that area?
Mr. TaylorWe considered the results of this census, and from all the evidence that I have received I am satisfied that this bridge will be adequate until at least the mid-80's.
