HC Deb 27 November 1967 vol 755 c21W
Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he is aware of the delay in constructing the new bridge at Calder Street, Coatbridge; and if he will give firm dates for the start and completion of this project, the total cost involved, and the amount to be met by way of Government grant.

Mr. Ross

I understand that there has been some delay, but the main constructional work should start next spring and be completed during 1969.

The approved cost of the scheme is almost £64,000 towards which I have offered g rant of £38,000.
