HC Deb 09 June 1972 vol 838 c166W
Mr. Lomas

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment why towns such as Rotherham, Doncaster and Barnsley are signposted on the M1 going North a considerable distance before the turn off, while Huddersfield with a much larger population is not mentioned until the turn off sign at junction 38; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Speed

Because they are much nearer the motorway and have more than one suitable access.
