HC Deb 01 March 1976 vol 906 c413W
Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he estimates that the volume of traffic using the A428 will increase substantially during the next decade or diminish due to the construction at a later date of new major routes.

Mr. Marks

Standard methods of forecasting indicate a probable traffic growth of up to 35 per cent, over the next 10 years. The effect of proposed new traffic routes is expected to be marginal.
