HC Deb 19 November 1936 vol 317 c1936W
Captain PLUGGE

asked the President of the Board of Trade, whether coastal shipping interests are satisfied, from the point of view of navigation, with regard to the design of the two new bridges over the Thames at Waterloo and Chelsea which are due for completion next year?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

I am informed by the Port of London Authority that representatives of the coastal shipping interests using the River Thames were consulted by the Authority before the final designs for the new bridges at Waterloo and Chelsea were settled, and that they expressed their approval of the proposals of the London County Council.
