HC Deb 10 November 1969 vol 791 c22W
74. Mr. Gordon Campbell

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what consideration he is giving to the alternative short trunk road route north from Inverness to Wick, crossing the Beauly Firth at Kessock and the Dornoch Firth at Meikle Ferry.

Mr. Ross

The studies being carried out of alternative lines for the reconstruction of the A9 between Inverness and Dingwall include the possibility of a crossing at Kessock. If these studies suggest that a crossing of the Dornoch Firth might profitably be investigated, I will consider doing this.
