§ Mr. SpellerTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he has received any representations asking him to approve the financial implications of the Devon county council plans for the construction of the Barnstaple down-stream bridge.
§ Mr. Peter BottomleyMy right hon. Friend has received a large number of representations urging reconsideration of the county council's capital allocation for roads in 1989–90. Most of these representations express concern over the future of the Barnstaple down-stream bridge. This bridge is included in Devon's transport policies and programme for a start of construction in 1995.
