HC Deb 30 June 1986 vol 100 c441W
Mr. Michael Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Transport how many motorway service areas are being considered for the M25 and M11; and when he now expects the first to open.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

Our present aim is to establish four service areas on the M25 and one on the M11 at Birchanger. The first of these areas expected to open is at South Mimms on the M25. It is expected that this will be fully operative early in 1987.
