HC Deb 07 February 1972 vol 830 c296W
Mr. Denzil Davies

asked the Secretary of State for Wales, in assessing the projected traffic flows for the A483 road linking Ammanford with the M4 motorway at Pont Abraham, what consideration was given to the desirability of a higher design standard in order thereby to improve the economic conditions in the Amman Valley.

Mr. Peter Thomas

It is my policy in planning highway improvements to take account of the contribution they can make to the development of industry in the area. I am satisfied that the standard proposed for this section of road is fully adequate for the purpose.
