HC Deb 08 April 1964 vol 692 c205W
30. Mr. Hastings

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will make a statement on his plans for the by-pass on the Al at Eaton Socon.

Mr. Marples

A report by consultants on the traffic needs of the area is expected shortly. When their recommendations have been considered, a draft Order under Section 7 of the Highways Act, 1959, will be published with a view to fixing the line of the by-pass and enabling the land to be acquired.

Construction will begin as soon as the necessary preliminary work can be completed.
