§ Mr. Greg KnightTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will ensure that all future and current construction of fencing alongside the M1 motorway in Leicestershire and South York shire is set back a sufficient distance from the motorway to accommodate future widening. [168230]
§ Dr. HowellsThere are currently no proposals to install fencing along the sections of the M1 in Leicestershire and South Yorkshire that are affected by future widening schemes.
Should any proposals arise in the future, the Highways Agency would take into account the widening of the M1 prior to carrying out any works.
