HC Deb 28 January 1981 vol 997 c450W
47. Mr. Brotherton

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what is the latest estimated cost and completion date of the Humber bridge.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

The latest estimate announced by the Humber bridge board is £87.882 million—at November 1980 prices. I understand that the board hopes to be able to open the bridge to traffic in April.
