§ 64. Sir D. Walker-Smithasked the Minister of Transport whether he will expedite the re-routing of the one way system operating in connection with the A.10 trunk road at Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire, in order to diminish the period during which the residents of Middlefield Road have to suffer the noise and nuisance 161W caused by the passage of through traffic, and so as to comply with the programming originally indicated.
§ Mr. MarshThe intention is that Duke Street should take the through traffic now using Middlefield Road but Duke Street must first be improved. To do this an order under Section 9 of the Highways Act 1959 is required. A draft order has been published but objections to it have been made. I am currently examining these with a view to making an early decision.
