HC Deb 16 June 1965 vol 714 cc66-7W
43. Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the Minister of Transport what steps he has taken during the last two months to improve transport facilities by road, rail and sea, respectively, between Aberdeen and the Midlands and south of Great Britain.

Mr. Tom Fraser

The improvement of transport facilities by rail and sea is a matter for the operators. Communications by road between Aberdeen and the areas mentioned have benefited from continuing improvements to the national road network. In particular, the Darlington bypass on A.1 was opened on 14th May.
