HC Deb 18 January 1971 vol 809 c226W
Mr. Peter Rees

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will state the flow of both goods and passenger vehicles to and from Dover on the A2 in the months of June, July and August in each of the past five years.

Mr. Michael Heseltine

The average 16-hour August day flow between the end of the M2 and Dover in 1965 was just under 10,000 vehicles, of which about 6½ per cent. were heavy goods vehicles. I am writing more fully to my hon. and learned Friend about the additional information available.
