§ Mr. Andersonasked the Secretary of State for Wales on what grounds he 219W rejected the application of Chepstow Urban District Council for an order to prohibit articulated vehicles using Moor Street, Chepstow; and what steps he proposes to take to alleviate the danger to safety there before the opening of the Inner Relief Road.
§ Mr. George ThomasThe alternative route would be unsatisfactory for these220W vehicles. Moor Street does not have a high accident record. The road markings have already been improved, and other measures have been taken to increase safety. No further steps which could be readily adopted seem to be practical at present. I hope that the Inner Relief Road will come into use during the summer of 1971.
