HC Deb 30 June 1986 vol 100 cc442-3W
Mr. Cartwright

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will list the organisations and individuals who have made representations to him in support of a third Thames crossing at Dartford and the removal of tolls, as an alternative to the construction of the proposed east London river crossing.

Mr. Moore

I will answer this question shortly.

Mr. Cartwright

asked the Secretary of State for Transport whether his Department intends to provide the inquiry into the proposed east London river crossing with information on the traffic effects of providing a third Thames crossing at Dartford and removing existing tolls as advocated by a number of objectors; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Moore

I have undertaken to make an announcement on the proposals for the third Thames crossing at Dartford. The Department will provide such further evidence as may be appropriate in the light of that announcement.
