HC Deb 04 June 1930 vol 239 c2178W
Sir F. NELSON

asked the Minister of Transport the cost per foot of concrete arterial road building and the approximate cost of upkeep of such roadways?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

Circumstances affecting the cost of road construction vary so widely in different parts of the country that no reliable figures regarding concrete roads could be quoted for general application, more especially as the cost both of construction and upkeep must largely depend upon the volume and weight of traffic using the road.
