§ Mr. Ashleyasked the Secretary of State for Transport what is the current average weekday traffic flow at the peak time on the A50 where it passes through the Meir in Stoke on Trent; and if he will give the figures for each of the past 10 years.

The figures below represent actual peak hour flows on A50 east of Meir for all vehicles taken from counts on a day in the years indicated, but the figures are not necessarily typical.
