HC Deb 25 July 1974 vol 877 c567W
Mr. Frank Allaun

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list schemes, with separate amounts against each scheme, and a programmed date of commencement, for trunk roads currently programmed in the Greater Manchester area.

Mr. Carmichael

The following trunk road schemes in the Greater Manchester area are in the firm programme:

Scheme Title Estimated Cost
(£m.)
A56 White City roundabout over-pass, Stretford 1.7
A580 Grade separation at Irlam o Height Junction A580/A6/ A666 4.7
M66 Bury easterly by-pass (North) 8.1
M67 Denton relief road (Stage 1) 11.6
M67 Hyde bypass 11.8

Given the present constraints on public expenditure the start for each scheme must be judged on its merits.
