HC Deb 11 May 1967 vol 746 cc277-8W
Mr. Bruce-Gardyne

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what estimate he has made of the cost of a motorway across Angus from the Dundee area to Montrose; and what forecast he has made of the date at which such monies would be available.

Mr. Ross

The 1965 census of trunk road traffic indicated that traffic on this route, even if it doubles by about 1980, will not be sufficient to justify a motorway for a long time to come, and accordingly no estimate has been necessary.
