HC Deb 02 March 1978 vol 945 cc333-4W
Mr. Parkinson

asked the Secretary of State for Transport when he will announce his decision on the route of the Hunton Bridge to South Mimms Section of the M25 London outer orbital motorway.

Mr. Horam

The preferred route for this section of the M25 was announced in March 1976. It is hoped to publish draft statutory proposals this summer. Depending on the number and weight of objections received, it may then be necessary to hold a public inquiry, following which my right hon. Friends, the Secretaries of State for Transport and for the Environment, would be in a position to proceed to a decision.
