§ Mr. Wigleyasked the Secretary of State for Wales on what date a decision was taken to make major structural improvements on the A487 trunk road near Talyllyn in Gwynedd; on what date works were commenced on this scheme; what was the original target date for completion of the work; and when he now expects the work to be completed.
§ Mr. Wyn RobertsA decision to undertake the current series of major structural improvements to the A487 was taken in 1982 when consulting engineers were appointed to carry out soil surveys and prepare three separate carriageway strengthening and stabilisation schemes. Work on the first contract started in July 1984 and, provided that adverse weather conditions do not interfere with the works, completion of the final contract is expected to be on time, before the end of this year.
