Sir W. Anstruther-Gray

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what sum contained in Civil Estimates, 1965–66, Class IV, 13, Maintenance and Minor Improvements, D and E, respectively, is due to extra expenditure to be incurred through the adoption of Worboys-type traffic signs; and what is the total provision for traffic signs.

Mr. Ross

The Estimate for Roads, etc. Scotland contains the following provision for extra expenditure in 1965–66 through the adoption of Worboys-type traffic signs:

D. Trunk Roads £143,000
E. Classified Roads (Grants to highway authorities) £188,000

The remaining provision for the new installation, replacement or maintenance of traffic signs is not separately indentifiable and its amount cannot therefore be given.
