§ Mr. Alisonasked the Minister of Transport, if he will specify which major road developments now under construction, or on which work is expected to start during 1965, have been designed on 411W the principles of the Buchanan Report on Traffic in Towns.
§ Mr. Tom FraserThe principles of the Buchanan Report on Traffic in Towns are concerned chiefly with the shaping of urban plans as a whole; their applicability to the design of individual road schemes, therefore, varies widely. However, in selecting schemes for the urban road programme, I give preference to those which follow from an integrated approach to land use and transport planning.
§ Mr. Eldon Griffithsasked the Minister or Transport, whether the road developments associated with Her Majesty's Government's expansion plans for Ipswich, Peterborough and Northampton are being designed on the lines recommended in the Buchanan Report on Traffic in Towns.
§ Mr. Tom FraserThe Buchanan Report demonstrated the need for road developments to be related closely to land use plans. This principle is being adopted in the feasibility studies now being undertaken for Ipswich, Peterborough and Northampton.
