HC Deb 24 November 1977 vol 939 cc832-3W
Mr. Lawrence

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what estimate his Department has made about the extent to which traffic through Uttoxeter will be affected by the construction of the proposed Stoke—Derby link road.

Mr. Horam

The proposed Stoke—Derby link road should slightly reduce the volume of through traffic in Uttoxeter. Much of the east-west long-distance traffic is already removed from the town by the existing bypass.
