HC Deb 15 February 1972 vol 831 cc70-1W
Mr. Lomas

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what representations he has received concerning the problems for the residents of New Hey Road, Huddersfield, of increasing road menaces, speed, noise and pollution, since the volume of traffic increased because of the proximity of the M62 motorway; what action he will take; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Graham Page

It is appreciated that the opening of the Pennine section of M62 has posed new problems for Huddersfield County Borough Council as highway authority for New Hey Road, though these will be eased when the length of M62 from Outlane to Gilder-some is completed. Only one member of the public has written to the Department about problems on New Hey Road.
