§ Mr. Tom Kingasked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether any traffic censuses have been done on the A30/A303 since the opening of the M4; and whether this indicates any transfer from the former to the latter of traffic bound for the South West.
§ Mr. SpeedThe M4 was completed at the end of 1971 and census figures are available only for limited sections of 21W A30 /A303 for 1972. It is too early to determine whether any transfer of traffic to M4 has occurred.
