HC Deb 22 June 1931 vol 254 c52W
Mr. F. GRAHAM

asked the Minister of Transport, as indicated by the last census of traffic, what were the figures of traffic using the new roads of major importance opened during the last three years in Great Britain; and whether there has been an increase or decrease since that date?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

The last census of traffic on Class I roads was taken in August, 1928. The next census will be taken in August of this year, when figures of traffic using important new roads opened during the last three years will be recorded for the first time. I shall be unable, therefore, to supply the information for which the hon. Member asks until the census results have been tabulated.
