§ Mr. Donnerasked the Minister of Transport whether he will state the number of accidents and the number of killed and injured, separately, during 1936 on the Hartford Bridge Flats on the Basingstoke-Camberley road?
§ Mr. Hore-BelishaI am informed that the number of accidents and the numbers of persons killed or injured during the year 1936 on the Hartford Bridge Flats 355W on the Basingstoke-Camberley Road were as follows:—
Number of Accidents 62 Number of Persons killed 4 Number of Persons injured 42
§ Mr. Donnerasked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the narrowness of the road across the Hartford Bridge Flats on the Camberley-Basingstoke road, which constitutes a considerable danger to motorists, any scheme has yet been submitted to him for the purpose of building a separate highway parallel to the present road with the object of separating outward and incoming traffic, or, failing this, whether the Southampton County Council propose to take measures without further delay to construct a second carriage-way?
§ Mr. Hore-BelishaPlans are being prepared for the construction of a parallel carriage-way, and I hope that it will be possible to start the works this year.
