HC Deb 13 December 1949 vol 470 cc248-9W
82. Mr. Anthony Greenwood

asked the Minister of Transport when it is expected that the repairs to A56 at Ramsbottom and Edenfield will be completed; and what steps he is taking to expedite completion, in view of the prolonged inconvenience caused to residents and passengers.

Mr. Callaghan

My right hon. Friend expects this work to be completed by the end of January. He regrets that it has taken so long; in addition to the repairs it has been necessary to carry out substantial drainage works.
