HC Deb 15 May 1963 vol 677 c152W
56. Sir K. Thompson

asked the Minister of Transport if he will make a statement about the proposed second crossing of the River Mersey at Liverpool.

Mr. Marples

The need for and the location of a second crossing of the River Mersey are being studied by the committee of local authorities which is drawing up proposals for a comprehensive programme of road improvements for the Merseyside conurbation area. I expect to receive a report from the committee later this year.
