§ Mr. Buchanan-Smithasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what estimate he has made of traffic densities on the A.92, Stonehaven to Dundee, and on the A.94, Stonehaven to Perth, in relation to through traffic and in relation to local traffic; and what estimate he has made of the effect of the opening of the Tay Road Bridge on these densities.
§ Mr. RossThe August traffic densities are approximately 6,000 passenger car units on A.94 from Perth to Stonehaven; 4,000 on A.92 from Stonehaven to Arbroath and 7,000 from Arbroath to Dundee. We have not estimated the effect on these densities of the opening of the Tay Road Bridge, but north of Forfar and Arbroath it is likely to be marginal.
