HC Deb 24 March 1986 vol 94 c345W
18. Mr. Harvey

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what the present timetable is for completion of the Chirk and Ruabon bypass; and whether there are any plans for a dual carriageway along the A483.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

The estimated opening date of the Ruabon bypass is autumn 1987. The timing of the Chirk bypass depends on the National Coal Board's proposals to undertake opencast mining on the intended line of the road. The Ruabon and Gresford-Pulford bypasses will be dual carriageway. The Newbridge and Chirk bypasses will be single carriageway.
