HC Deb 12 August 1966 vol 733 cc472-3W
Mr. Edwin Wainwright

asked the Minister of Transport if she will make a statement on the action being taken to remove the hardships experienced by people working in, or visiting, Barnsley from the Wombwell and Wath-upon-Dearne districts due to the closure of the road bridge lying between Wombwell and Stairfoot.

Mr. Swingler

The bridge is being repaired as quickly as possible, and should be open to road traffic early next week.
