§ 57. Mr. A. E. Cooperasked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation if he will make a statement on the proposed improvements to Blackwall Tunnel.
§ Mr. Watkinson:I have recently made a grant of £945,000 to the London County Council towards the improvement of the northern approach to this tunnel. The scheme provides for a two-level layout to allow traffic to flow freely into and out of the tunnel and along the East India Dock Road. It is also designed to accommodate the entrance to a second tunnel in the future.
