HC Deb 16 February 1948 vol 447 c159W
116. Colonel Stoddart-Scott

asked the Minister of Transport if he is aware that Bradford Corporation have withdrawn their bus service from the Tyersal Estate, Pudsey, owing to the dispute with the British Railways over the cost of road maintenance of Arkright Street and the railway bridge; that residents of this estate, who are chiefly textile workers, are being put to considerable inconvenience owing to this reduction in the bus service; and if he will take steps to improve the bus service in this area.

Mr. Barnes

I am informed that Arkwright Street is railway property and owing to its bad condition it is not at the present time suitable for bus traffic. I am arranging for the parties concerned to get together to see whether a solution can be found.
