HC Deb 10 August 1966 vol 733 c329W
65. Sir G. de Freitas

asked the Minister of Transport when she will announce the new route of the A6 so that local authorities in the Kettering division of Northamptonshire can plan ahead.

Mr. John Morris

The plan to divert A6 away from the centre of Kettering is shown in the approved Town Map. My right hon. Friend's proposals to reroute A6 in the centre of Desborough were made public in May and she hopes to reach a decision on that project by the end of the year.

More details about traffic are to be obtained to show whether any other improvements are needed and if so what form they should take.
