HC Deb 28 February 1966 vol 725 c217W
Mr. Hirst

asked the Minister of Transport if she will take steps to construct a suspension footbridge on the A.650 over the river adjacent to Cottingley Bar Bridge in the urban district of Bingley, so that danger from further accidents, especially to the children attending schools in Bingley, can be obviated.

Mr. Swingler

My right hon. Friend has decided that a footbridge should be provided here. Design and preparation work is being put in hand immediately, but it is likely to be at least 12 months before work can begin.
