HC Deb 15 July 1971 vol 821 cc148-9W
Mr. Redmond

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will give the estimated total value of road schemes to be transferred from the preparation pool to the firm road programme for each year to 1975–76, or as far ahead as convenient.

Mr. Graham Page

Over £1,300 million worth of the trunk road schemes now in preparation are expected to be programmed by the end of the financial year 1975–76 but the rate at which they are transferred to the firm programme will vary from year to year.
