HC Deb 23 December 1964 vol 704 c284W
Mr. Hawkins

asked the Minister of Transport what are the relative amounts of traffic on the A.10 southwards to Downham Market, and the A.134 from its junction with the A.10 southwards to Stradsett Foldgate.

Mr. Tom Fraser

Traffic at the peak August period this year is estimated at about 3,100 vehicles a day on A.10, 2,200 vehicles a day on A.134.

Mr. Hawkins

asked the Minister of Transport why the stretch of the A.134 immediately North of Foddestone Gap is being widened before the A.10 Lynn to London road in the same area is widened.

Mr. Tom Fraser

The A.134 is a classified road which is being improved by Norfolk County Council, the responsible highway authority, with grant assistance. In the trunk road programme, the A.10 has a lower priority for improvement than other trunk roads in the area.
