HC Deb 08 May 1963 vol 677 c56W
56. Mr. Swingler

asked the Minister of Transport if he will take steps to speed up road works on the Jamage Road and Talke Road so that normal bus services between Red Street, Newcastle-under-Lyme and other parts of north Staffordshire can be restored as soon as possible.

Mr. Hay

I understand that repairs to Jamage Road are to be undertaken by the Kidsgrove U.D.C. as a matter of urgency. This will enable the use of Jamage Road as a diversionary route for buses to be resumed until the major reconstruction of Talke Road to carry it over the new link with M.6 is completed.
