HC Deb 14 December 1966 vol 738 cc92-3W
94. Mr. Deedes

asked the Minister of Transport what proposals her Department has put to Kent County Council on a new motorway to serve the Channel Tunnel; and if she will make a statement.

Mrs. Castle

The nature and extent of improvements needed to roads to serve the Charnel Tunnel will depend on the outcome of investigations now in hand. The road most affected will be the A20 and the Kent County Council has completed a preliminary investigation of possible alternative alignments for this route east of the Maidstone by-pass. My Department is now arranging an aerial survey.
