§ Mr. Woodallasked the Secretary of State for Transport what plans he has for relieving the traffic burden on the A642.
§ Mrs. ChalkerThe published proposals for the Kirkhamgate-Dishforth scheme include a link from the M1 to the A1 which would, amongst other things, relieve the A642 of much of its existing traffic. My right hon. Friends, the Secretaries of State for Transport and the Environment, hope to announce a decision on these proposals during the early part of this year.
