HC Deb 25 January 1977 vol 924 cc532-3W
Mr. Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Wales why there has been a delay of over two years in the completion of the building of a footpath on the A494 trunk road at Llanbedr Dyffryn Clwyd, Ruthin, Clwyd, between Llanbedr DC Post Office and Pentre Smithy; and what steps he intends to take to ensure that this work is expeditiously concluded.

Mr. Barry Jones

Construction of footway alongside the trunk road at Llanbedr DC has been delayed by considerable difficulties in acquiring the necessary land. Efforts are being made to resolve an outstanding objection to the draft compulsory purchase order. If they are successful work could start in the next financial year.

Mr. Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for Wales whether, with a view to reducing the danger of accidents on the A494 trunk road at the Tan yr Unto corner, Llanbedr Dyffryn Clwyd, Ruthin, Clwyd, he will take steps to ensure that an appropriate speed limit be enforced in the general area and double-white lines be placed on the A494 carriageway for a suitable distance.

Mr. Barry Jones

Double white lines, warning signs and a skid resistant surface have been provided; and advisory speed limit and the possible extension of the double white lines are being considered.
