Thirty-eight—12 from groups, the remainder from individuals.

Mr. John Wells

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he intends that work shall begin to improve the Maidstone bypass section of the M20 so that it has six instead of four lanes.

Mr. Rippon

Whilst there are no plans to widen this section of M20, the need for increased capacity is being kept under review.
