HC Deb 11 November 1969 vol 791 c51W
50. Mr. Kenneth Lewis

asked the Minister of Transport what special measures he is proposing to take to ensure that, should heavy falls of snow occur this winter, the main roads are kept clear.

Mr. Mulley

None. Our normal winter arrangements are already in operation and should ensure that motorways and trunk roads are kept open or, if blocked through abnormally severe conditions, are re-opened with the minimum delay.
