HC Deb 20 July 1988 vol 137 cc599-600W
Mr. Tony Lloyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what assessment he has made of the case for dualling the A47 Acle new road between Great Yarmouth and Acle.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

Norfolk county council, as the Department's agent, has carried out an assessment of the justification for dualling the A47 Acle new road. I have also seen the case for this improvement prepared by Great Yarmouth borough council. We shall consider the merits of this case along with the many competing claims at the next review of the trunk road programme.
