HC Deb 08 July 1971 vol 820 c450W
Rear-Admiral Morgan-Giles

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether his new improvements on the trunk road network will include a western bypass to relieve the historic city of Winchester.

Mr. Michael Heseltine

There is already an eastern bypass of Winchester which caters for through trunk road traffic. The M3 extension from Popham will provide additional relief. The route for this extension is still under consideration.
