HC Deb 22 October 1991 vol 196 cc470-1W
Mr. Spearing

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what steps he has taken subsequent on his official visit to the Blackwall tunnel on 3 September, to minimise preventable traffic congestion and delay in east London by improved traffic management, road signing and similar methods.

Mr. Freeman

With regard to the Blackwall tunnel, I refer the hon. Member to the answer given on Tuesday 15 October,Official Report, columns 124–25. When road-works are carried out they will often cause some degree of traffic congestion. However, the Department always takes great care to devise works in such a way as to minimise delay for the motorist and nuisance for others.
