HC Deb 06 July 1966 vol 731 c69W
67. Mr. George Jeger

asked the Minister of Transport whether she is aware of the continuous delays to road traffic at the canal bridge at Thorne; and whether she will arrange for a temporary Bailey bridge to be built there until the Thorne by-pass is built.

Mr. Swingler

My right hon. Friend is aware of the delays, but in view of the plans for a by-pass expenditure on a temporary bridge would not be justified.
