§ 55. Captain Pilkingtonasked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation how much it is costing to put kerb stones along a portion of the country road A.33 some 10 miles north-east of Winchester; and how much it will cost to remove them again when the road is widened.
§ Mr. Boyd-CarpenterThe estimated cost of providing a kerb on this section of the trunk road A.33 is £1,060. The kerb will not have to be removed when280W the road is widened, as the existing carriageway will be retained in its present position as one of the dual carriageways ultimately intended. The plans for this scheme were settled before I undertook a review of road kerbing in rural areas.
