HC Deb 28 June 1979 vol 969 c286W
Mr. Michael Brown

asked the Minister of Transport when he expects to conclude his consideration of the inspector's report of the public inquiry held in December 1978 relating to the extension of the M180 motorway from Barnetby Top to Grimsby.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

My right hon. Friends the Secretary of State for the Environment and the Minister of Transport are bound to consider all the objections and representations, together with the inspector's report, before reaching a decision. The proposals dealt with over 14 miles of new road and the considerations are complicated. The urgency for a decision is appreciated and I hope that it will be possible to make an announcement this summer.
