HC Deb 21 July 1965 vol 716 c229W
Mr. Wall

asked the Minister of Transport why work on the footbridge over the Boothferry Road at Welton, East Yorkshire, has not yet started; and when he expects the bridge to be completed.

Mr. Tom Fraser

Certain design features of the proprietary steel bridge which it was proposed to erect were found to be unsatisfactory, and a new design had to be prepared. Tenders for this design have been called for by 4th August. If there are no unforeseen difficulties construction should be completed by next January.
