§ Mr. Taverneasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what representation he has received from the Road Haulage Association about the need for a bypass round Lincoln; and whether he will make a statement.
§ Mr. CarmichaelThe Road Haulage Association has drawn my attention to a number of road schemes, including a scheme for a bypass round Lincoln which it thinks should be given greater priority in the road programme. A land use transportation study on the city road network has been carried out jointly by the Department and Lincoln City Council, and its outcome is being considered.
