HC Deb 29 July 1959 vol 610 c77W
Mr. Janner

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation if, in view of the fact that the basis for estimating future traffic volumes in rural areas laid down in Circular 727 is at present under review, he will undertake to revise all road schemes not yet carried out to conform to the new basis when decided.

Mr. Watkinson

When a decision has been reached on the new basis, the schemes in preparation or at the planning stage will be looked at afresh to see what modifications may be required. It is likely that in many cases the layout will not require revision.
