HC Deb 09 December 1968 vol 775 c10W
Mr. Will Owen

asked the Minister of Transport, what changes have been made in the plans for the Morpeth by-pass; and to what extent such changes will affect the progress of the work.

Mr. Bob Brown

The only change in the proposals for the Morpeth by-pass relates to the slip road arrangements adjacent to the A1/A697 junction which, if approved, will permit a better access for northbound traffic from Morpeth. The change will not affect the progress of the work.
