HC Deb 27 July 1960 vol 627 cc147-8W
76. Mr. Hilton

asked the Minister of Transport what representations he has received from the Norfolk County Council relating to a new by-pass road at Kings Lynn; and what reply has been sent.

79. Mr. Bullard

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will now authorise work to be started on the construction of the Kings Lynn by-pass.

Mr. Marples

The Norfolk County Council has written to me urging early approval of the Kings Lynn by-pass. The results of a traffic survey taken last year are being studied and a reply will be sent to the county council shortly. The priority to be given to the scheme will have to be related to the need for other such schemes elsewhere.
