HC Deb 22 October 1984 vol 65 c420W
Mr. Pawsey

asked the Secretary of State for Transport how many closures of more than 12 hours' duration have occurred on the M45 during the past two years; and what were the reasons for those closures.

Mrs. Chalker

Closures over 12 hours occurred on the eastbound carriageway of the M45 twice in 1983 and on both carriageways once in 1984. These closures were necessary for the safety of traffic using the M1 during current essential repairs.
