HC Deb 21 May 1984 vol 60 c335W
18. Mr. Maples

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what plans he has for the south circular road after it has come under his Department's control.

Mrs. Chalker

The first step is to take final decisions about which particular roads including the south circular are to be the responsibility of the Department. As the consultation paper explained, we are considering commissioning a number of assessment studies about the possible options for improvement of London's roads and the local environment over the next 10 to 15 years.
