§ 73. Mr. Hamiltonasked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation whether he is aware -that the proposed improvements to the Forth Queensferry Passage will still only allow for the carriage of commercial vehicles of approximately five tons unladen weight; and what steps he contemplates to remedy this state of affairs.
§ Mr. MolsonVehicles up to seven tons unladen weight are, in fact, accepted at the discretion of the masters of the ferry vessels. The small proportion of vehicles which exceed this limit will have to continue to use alternative routes after the improvement of the ferry.
