HC Deb 07 March 1966 vol 725 c445W
Mr. Buxton

asked the Minister of Transport (1) when she will publish the route for the Eastern Avenue extension from the Green Man, Leytonstone, to the termination of the M.11 at the North Circular Road, the uncertainty about which is causing anxiety to local residents;

(2) whether she will now give a date for the commencement of work on the Eastern Avenue extension from Hackney Marshes to the Green Man, Leytonstone, which has been a need for the area for many years, and for which the route has been agreed for some time.

Mr. Swingler

I cannot yet give this information. The priorities for the building and improvement of major routes in North-East London are now being examined by the Department and the Greater London Council and Consultants are at present engaged on a detailed survey. My right hon. Friend hopes to receive their report soon.
