HC Deb 25 May 1979 vol 967 cc336-7W
Mr. Barry Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what is his estimate of the starting date for construction of the Holywell bypass, its proposed length and estimated cost; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Nicholas Edwards

Investigations into alternative routes proposed by objectors to the published orders for this scheme are continuing. It is hoped to start construction in 1983.

The current estimated cost of the published scheme is £11 million and its length is 4.66 miles (7.5 kms).
