HL Deb 14 May 1968 vol 292 c322WA
THE EARL OF MAR

asked Her Majesty's Government:

When they propose to authorise the construction of a by-pass of the Burgh of Tranent and the Royal Burgh of Musselburgh to carry the traffic on the A1.

LORD HUGHES

In the 1970s. I cannot be more precise until consultation has taken place with the local authorities about the whole Scottish road building programme for the 1970s and the necessary cost-benefit analyses of the major schemes have been done.

House adjourned at seventeen minutes past eight o'clock.
