§ Mr. Elysian Morganasked the Secretary of State for Wales how many miles 342W of motorway and dual carriageway, respectively, will be in use in Wales by 1980.
§ Mr. Peter ThomasThere are 27 miles of motorways and 82 miles of other dual carriageways in use in Wales now. A further 29 miles of motorway and 45 miles of other dual carriageways are either in progress or firmly programmed. The preparation pool for trunk roads and motorways contains schemes which could provide a further 19 miles of motorway and 105 miles of other dual carriageways. As many as possible of these schemes will be completed by 1980, but I cannot give a precise forecast.
