§ 49. Mr. Proudfootasked the Secretary of State for the Environment when the A64 will bypass Malton, York and Tadcaster; and when he hopes it will be dualled from Scallgethorpe to Leeds.
§ 75. Sir D. Kaberryasked the Secretary of State for the Environment by what date he anticipates bypass roads around Tadcaster, York and Malton will be completed so as to ease the flow of traffic from the West Riding to the Yorkshire coast.
§ 76. Mr. Michael Shawasked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will confirm that there will be no delay in the starting date of the proposed Malton bypass.
§ Mr. SpeedWork on the York bypass will start later this year. In due course we shall be considering the priority to be given to the Malton and Tadcaster bypasses. This will be necessary for my right hon. Friend's promised announcement later this year on the future trunk road programme. The A64 section should, on present plans, have dual carriageways on most of its length by 1980, but these plans naturally depend on the availability of funds.
