HC Deb 30 March 1988 vol 130 c554W
Mr. Goodlad

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what proposals he has for constructing a bypass round Chester on the A51; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

Our only proposal for a bypass round Chester is on the A41 east of the city. This will include a new junction with the A51. Line and side roads orders were recently confirmed and construction could start next year.
