HC Deb 20 February 1968 vol 759 c93W
Mr. William Edwards

asked the Postmaster-General how many local authorities in Merioneth have requested an opportunity to have their areas within the General Post Office passenger-mail experiment.

Mr. Joseph Slater

Merioneth County Council put forward five proposals for postal minibus routes. They were:

  • Corwen-Bettws Gwerful Goch-Melinywig (Edeyrnion Rural District).
  • Bala-Frongoch-Arenig-Llidiardau-Rhyduchaf-Bala (Penllyn R.D. and Bala U.D.).
  • Dolgellau-Abergeirw-Dolgellau (Dolgellau R.D.).
  • Dolgellau-Brithdir-Bontnewydd-Dolgellau (Dolgellau R.D.).
  • Towyn-Rhoslefain via Tonfanau Camp (Dolgellau R.D. and Towyn U.D.).

The routes were carefully investigated but none proved suitable for an experiment.
