HC Deb 27 March 1968 vol 761 cc264-5W
Mr. Molloy

asked the Minister of Transport, in view of the continued uncertainty concerning proposals submitted to her Department on behalf of some local authorities by Professor Colin Buchanan regarding the ultimate London D-Ring Road route, if she will make a statement concerning this matter; and if she will also indicate when she will be announcing her ultimate decision.

Mr. Swingler

No proposals on this route have been submitted by Professor Buchanan or by any of the five local authorities concerned. We are expecting the views of the local authorities shortly and shall have no further statement to make until these have been fully considered. How long it will be before a decision is made about the route must depend upon what the comments of the local authorities are.
