§ Dr. Edmund Marshallasked the Secretary of State for Transport what is the position with respect to the provision of speed advisory signals on the M18 and M180 motorways.
§ Mr. HoramThe section of M18 from Langham (junction 7) to Thorne (junction 6) is included in the rolling programme, and signals are due to be commissioned in 1981.
The section of M18 from Thorne (junction 6) to Wadworth (junction 2) and all M180 are in the next stage of the programme and firm dates have not so far been settled. Likely commissioning date is the mid-1980s.
Signals are already in operation on the section of M18 (junction 2) to the M1-M18 interchange.
