HC Deb 27 March 1968 vol 761 cc263-4W
52. Sir J. Eden

asked the Minister of Transport how many private and commercial properties have already been acquired, and how many persons have thereby been affected, in order to make way for the construction of Bournemouth's town centre bypass; and what is her estimate in each case of the final figures by the time the new roadway network has been completed.

Mr. Carmichael

This is a principal road scheme for which Bournemouth County Borough Council are the highway authority. It is understood that one commercial and 31 private properties have so far been acquired, affecting about 109 persons in all. No estimate is at present available in respect of the remainder of the new road network which is a long term proposal and will be dependent on redevelopment proposals.
