HC Deb 30 June 1977 vol 934 cc293-4W
Mr. O'Halloran

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what representations he has received regarding the widening of the A1 road between central London and North Circular Road.

Mr. William Rodgers

The A1 trunk road between the North Circular Road and Winchester Road has been the subject of public inquiries in recent years. Many representations have been received by the Department but details are not readily available and could not be obtained without disproportionate cost.

The short length of trunk road southwards from Winchester Road has already been widened. Further south the A1 is a metropolitan road and the responsibility of the Greater London Council.

Mr. O'Halloran

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what consultations have taken place between his Department and the Greater London Council regarding carrying out a survey of the A1 south of the Archway with a view to possible widening.

Mr. William Rodgers

None.
