HC Deb 04 March 1968 vol 760 cc42-3W
Mr. Roy Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for Wales when a grant will be made available for the improvement of Malpas Road, Newport, from the Newport by-pass M4 to Bettws Lane; when work will start; and how long it will take.

Mr. Cledwyn Hughes

I have made a grant of £95,244 to Newport County Borough Council towards the estimated £126,992 cost of the scheme. The starting date is a matter for Newport County Borough Council but I understand that they plan to begin work in March. The improvement should be completed in eighteen months.
