HC Deb 08 May 1968 vol 764 cc77-8W
34. Mr. John Lee

asked the Minister of Transport if he will make a statement on the progress of negotiations for the acquisition of the remaining portions of the route for the M4 between Maidenhead and Reading.

Mr. Bob Brown

Until all the statutory Schemes and Orders have been made the exact requirements for the acquisition of land will not be known.

The draft Scheme and Side Road Order proposals for the eastern length from Holyport to Winnersh are the sub- ject of Public Inquiries, which opened at Maidenhead on 30th April.

To meet objections on the western length from Winnersh to Theale fresh proposals for the M4/A4 interchange and the diversion of Trunk Road A4 at Theale will be published shortly.

Forward to
