HC Deb 05 July 1978 vol 953 cc203-4W
70. Mr. Walters

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will make a statement about the date when work will commence on the Warminster bypass.

Mr.Horam

The White Paper "Policy for Roads: England 1978" (Cmnd. 7132) brought the planned start date of the Warminster bypass forward to the period 1981–83. The actual date will depend on progress with the statutory procedures and on the availability of funds at the time, but is unlikely to be before 1982.
