HC Deb 07 June 1967 vol 747 c199W
12. Mr. Eldon Griffiths

asked the Minister of Transport which stretches of road in the administrative county of West Suffolk have been included in the preparation pool; how much money she expects to spend on improving them during the next one year, two years and three years, respectively; and when the work she is preparing to start is likely to be completed in each case.

Mr. Swingler

A by-pass to divert trunk road traffic north of Bury St. Edmunds. At this stage no accurate estimate can be given of the proportion of the costs of preparing this scheme that will fall within the first, second and third years. As for expenditure on works and date of completion, this scheme, like others in the preparation pool, will be considered for inclusion in the trunk road works programme for the early 1970s as and when the preparatory work is sufficiently advanced.
