Mr. Matthew Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport (1) if he will publish tables showing the estimated completion dates for the major road projects outlined in the roads White Paper in 1987 and the present estimated completion dates; and if he will make a statement;

(2) if the roads report promised in the White Paper, "Roads for Prosperity", has been completed; and if he will make a statement;

(3) when he plans to complete and publish the roads report promised in the White Paper, "Roads for Prosperity"; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Atkins

Preparation of the roads report is complete and will be published very shortly. The report will include tables showing details of all schemes in the national trunk road programme, including completion dates where appropriate. It will cover the schemes under construction or in preparation at the time of publication of "Policy for Roads in England 1987" and additions to the programme made since, including those announced in the White Paper, "Roads for Prosperity" published last May.
