HC Deb 25 July 1986 vol 102 cc519-20W
Mr. Michael Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Transport whether, in the light of increased traffic flow, he intends to review the approximate 30-mile interval between motorway service areas.

Mr. David Mitchell

It remains general policy to provide motorway service areas at approximately 30-mile intervals, but to consider the provision of additional sites in between wherever traffic demand appears to justify it.

Mr. Michael Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what proposals he has for an additional motorway service area on the M11 north of Birchanger near Stansted.

Mr. David Mitchell

None.
