HC Deb 20 February 1947 vol 433 c222W
Mr. Swingler

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware of the unsatisfactory and dangerous state of the trunk road Stafford—Stone—Newcastleunder-Lyme; what are his plans for its improvement; and when work will be commenced.

Mr. Barnes

Schemes for widening and improving various sections of this trunk road between Stafford and Newcastle-under-Lyme are in preparation. The commencement of constructional works must depend on the availability of the necessary money, labour and materials.
