HC Deb 15 January 1971 vol 809 cc158-9W
Sir R. Russell

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will have the ruts and ravines in the roadway of York Gate, Regents Park, N.W.1, filled in as soon as possible.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

This is a private roadway maintained by the Crown Estate Paving Commission. I understand that the imperfections in the surface are due to the heavy traffic, particularly lorries used for the restoration and conversion of the Regency Terraces around Regent's Park, which these roads were not constructed to bear. Temporary repairs are made from time to time but when the restoration of the terraces has been completed, the surface of this road will be relaid by the Crown Estate Paving Commission.
