HC Deb 27 April 1987 vol 115 c6W
Mr. Pike

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will make a statement on potential for traffic growth on the M62 across the Pennines.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

The M62 section across the Pennines, soon to be improved by the addition of climbing lanes, can accommodate substantial traffic growth. We plan to widen the busy section of the motorway north of Manchester.
