HC Deb 23 November 1966 vol 736 c298W
75. Mr. Wingfield Digby

asked the Minister of Transport why only £1,000 has been allotted to Dorset for the installation of Worboys signs in 1966–67.

Mr. John Morris

My right hon. Friend has allocated £6,800 for the installation of the new signs in Dorset for 1966–67. £5,800 of this amount is for trunk roads and £1,000 is the grant towards the cost of the signs on classified roads.

In 1965–66 the County Council were finally allocated £7,000 for classified roads of which only £6,000 was spent. It is this balance of £1,000 which has so far been reallocated for this year.
