HC Deb 17 June 1959 vol 607 c51W
Mr. Gresham Cooke

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation, in view of the fact that it is almost three years since the St. Neot's trunk road river bridge became dangerous, with the resultant institution of one-way traffic working, whether he will expedite the construction of the new bridge; when work will be started; and when it will be completed.

Mr. Watkinson

This scheme will be fitted into the programme as soon as funds will allow. A starting date cannot be given yet, but work is proceeding on the design of the bridge and on the preparation of the necessary Order under Section 6 of the Trunk Roads Act, 1946.
