HC Deb 08 March 1971 vol 813 cc55-6W
Mr. Nicholas Edwards

asked the Secretary of State for Wales why the start of work on the Wolfscastle Bridge on the main A40 trunk road has been delayed; when the work is now to start; and how long it is expected to take.

Mr. Peter Thomas

Consultations with British Rail on the design of the new bridge have taken longer than expected but are now nearing completion. Work is expected to start within two months and to take about one year to complete.
