HC Deb 16 February 1948 vol 447 cc165-6W
Colonel Wheatley

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation if the road connecting Heathrow Aerodrome with the Great West Road is being carried out on a fixed contract or on a cost-plus basis.

Mr. Lindgren

No road is being constructed to connect London Airport to the Great West Road. If, however, the hon. Member is referring to the diversion of the Stanwell New Road on the southern side of the airport between Stanwell Village and the Great South-West Road, this is being constructed on the basis of a schedule of prices. No work on a cost-plus basis is being undertaken at the London Airport.
