§ Mr. Donnerasked the Minister of Transport at what date work began on a new road bend between Sutton Scotney and Basingstoke in the district of Micheldever; the number of men employed; the total estimated cost of the work when completed; and the estimated date of this.
§ Mr. BarnesThis work began on 27th August, 1946, and is expected to be completed by the end of May. Wet weather in the autumn of 1946 and snow and frost 235W early in 1947 delayed progress; there has also been some difficulty in obtaining labour and materials. The average number of men employed has been about 20. The estimated cost is £31,400 for works and £1,125 for land.
