§ Mr. Proudfootasked the Minister of Transport how many road bridges have been built of concrete and of steel, respectively, since the war; and by which road authorities or agents they were built.
§ Mr. MarplesThis information is not readily available. Since some thousands of road bridges have been built since the war, it would be a lengthy and complicated task to obtain it from the highway or agent authorities concerned. Most concrete bridges do, of course, incorporate large quantities of steel as reinforcement.
