§ Sir John Biggs-Davisonasked the Secretary of State for Transport what complaints have been received from the Epping Forest district of Essex of danger caused to pedestrians and riders by motorway works; and what action has been taken by the highway engineers responsible for work on the M25.
§ Mrs. Chalker:The Upshire Village preservation society has complained about the state of the temporary diversion of bridleway 95 where it crosses the M25 construction site. All reasonable steps have been taken in accordance with undertakings given to maintain a safe way through the substantial excavation works. Now that the motorway cutting is formed, the temporary diversion will have a progressively better surface. I am writing to my hon. Friend.
