§ 14. Sir C. Osborneasked the Minister of Transport what is the estimated annual cost of putting kerb stones along country lanes; and whether he will revise his guidance to local highway authorities on this matter.
Mr. Bob BrownKerbing is usually an item of road maintenance and no separate figures of cost are available. A new manual on the layout of country roads, to be published shortly, will give revised guidance on the edging of carriageways. I will send the hon. Member a copy.
