HC Deb 21 June 1965 vol 714 c166W
Mr. Hamling

asked the Minister of Transport what increase has taken place in the price of land for road construction in the area of the Greater London Council in the last 15 years.

Mr. Tom Fraser

No figures are readily available from the many local authorities concerned to provide a reliable comparison. The cost of land for the small amounts of trunk road work in this area has increased by about 600 per cent.
