HC Deb 16 May 1973 vol 856 c319W
Mr. David Price

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is his latest estimate of the capital cost of building a Channel bridge as denned on page 27 of Command Paper No. 5256 of March 1973.

Mr. Peyton

I have no reason to believe that the cost would be less than the estimates of double or more the cost of a bored tunnel put forward by the promoters of the various schemes.
