§ Mr. Farrasked the Secretary of State for Transport what further reconsideration he has now been able to give to his earlier decision not to bypass the A47, at East Norton, Leicestershire.
§ Mrs. ChalkerA revision of design standards has enabled a simpler form of bypass south of East Norton to be considered. We have asked local residents for comments and will continue our investigation of the scheme in the hope of adding it to our east midlands regional programme of work, with a possible start of construction in five or six years' time.
