HC Deb 19 June 1969 vol 785 c137W
62. Miss Lestor

asked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the recent series of accidents involving skidding, on the M4 motorway, he will expedite the proposed action for dealing with this hazard.

Mr. Bob Brown

We have given the utmost priority to this matter. Tenders for surface dressing the elevated dual two-lane section were opened yesterday. They are now being considered with the intention that the works should start in July. Tenders for the dual three-lane asphalt section are due on 25th June and it is hoped that this work will follow that on the elevated section. Tenders will be invited next month for the widening and resurfacing of the length from Langley to the Windsor Interchange.
