HC Deb 14 February 1930 vol 235 cc801-2W
Sir K. WOOD

asked the Minister of Transport whether he has taken any action with a view to mitigating the increasing congestion of traffic on the southeastern and south side of London; and whether, apart from schemes relating to a section of the south circular road at Well Hall Road and at the Elephant and Castle, he has sanctioned any proposals with a view to improving traffic facilities for this part of London?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

During the current year grants have been made from the Road Fund towards the cost of 31 schemes of road improvement on the south and south-eastern sides of London, and a number of other proposals are being considered by my Department in conjunction with the local authorities.
