HC Deb 14 February 1973 vol 850 c351W
Mr. Sydney Chapman

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he has reached a decision on the suggestion made by the hon. Member for Birmingham, Handsworth on 10th May 1972 to introduce an additional road classification, associated motorway (AM), which would consist of two-lane motorways and certain stretches of dual-carriageway roads.

Mr. Speed

The proposal does not seem to offer sufficient benefits to outweigh the likely legislative and administrative difficulties and the possible confusion for the motoring public.
