§ Mr. Steenasked the Secretary of State for Transport what proposals there are for extending the crash barriers on the A38 dual carriageway linking Exeter with Plymouth and over what timescale.
§ Mrs. ChalkerAs a result of a comprehensive review, I have recently agreed to the provision of two further lengths of safety fencing in the central reserve, one at Linhay Hill, the other at Chudleigh. Each length will be about five-eighths of a mile. I anticipate that the erection of this fencing, along with other associated safety works, will be completed by the end of November.
