§ Mr. Wallasked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will give the date for the completion of the Humber Bridge and the latest estimated cost and the toll charges that are proposed.
§ Mr. HoramThe latest estimate that we have from the Humber Bridge Board is that the bridge should be opened at the end of March 1979, at a cost of construction of £60,035,000 at mid-1977 prices. This cost includes the immediate approach roads but excludes capitalised interest.
Tolls are a matter for the Humber Bridge Board, subject to my right hon. Friend's confirmation. He is awaiting the Board's proposals.
