HC Deb 02 March 1965 vol 707 c222W
Mr. Jopling

asked the Minister of Transport what plans he has to improve the A.66 where it passes through the County of Westmorland.

Mr. Tom Fraser

I have no immediate plans for any comprehensive reconstruction of this road. But local realignment and other improvements will continue to be carried out over the next few years to provide a 24 ft. carriageway throughout, with some passing stretches here and there. I hope to start work this year on a 1frac12; mile diversion at Crackenthorpe.
