HC Deb 16 October 1990 vol 177 c766W
Mr. Spearing

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport by what date he expects to publish one or more plans for public consultation for a grade intersection between Prince Regents lane and Newham way (A13); and from what date he expects to be able to purchase affected property by voluntary agreement.

Mr. Chope

[holding answer 15 October 1990]: A public consultation on options for placing Newham way in an underpass beneath Prince Regents lane was held at Newham leisure centre on 12 and 13 October. A questionnaire was available there, and from Newham council offices and the borough library. Respondents have been asked to comment by 9 November. A preferred option will be selected in the light of these comments and it is hoped to publish draft orders by the autumn of next year.

Any requests to purchase property in cases involving hardship will be considered by the Department.
