HC Deb 12 May 1965 vol 712 cc81-2W
Mr. Neave

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware that a further fatal accident has occurred at Cumnor Hill, near Oxford; and when he expects to make a statement about the future place of the by-pass scheme in a road programme.

A scheme to by-pass Cumnor Hill will be considered with other road proposals in Berkshire when the programme is extended. Whether it will be possible to include it will depend on the resources available and the priority it commands in comparison with the many other urgent schemes elsewhere.
