HC Deb 09 February 1972 vol 830 cc359-60W
49. Mr. Tebbit

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will publish noise contour diagrams, similar to those published for airfields, to show the intensity of noise pollution that will be caused by proposed motorways to the proposed Foulness Airport, and give estimates of the number of people likely to be affected by such noise.

Mr. Peter Walker

No decisions on the routes for motorways to Maplin have yet been taken. I will consider what information can be made available on noise when work on these routes is further advanced.
