§ Mr. Barry Jonesasked the Secretary of State for Wales when he will publish the North-East Wales traffic study; what is the current estimated cost; what estimate he has of the likelihood of the River Road, A548, being built by 1985; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Wyn RobertsA final report will be made to the Department by the middle of the year, and we shall then consider the question of publication. The current estimated cost of the study is about £150,000. The A548 is a principal road and its improvement or reconstruction is a matter for Clwyd county council.
