§ 70. Mr. Skeffingtonasked the Minister of Transport by what percentage road capacity was increased on trunk roads and Class I roads, respectively, between 1st January, 1946, and 31st December, 1961.
§ Mr. MarplesI regret that the information for trunk roads before 1956 and for Class I roads could not be obtained without an unjustifiable expendiaire of effort. However, between 1st January, 1956, and 31st December, 1961, the capacity of the trunk road system including the motorways increased by about 22 per cent.
