§ Mr. RedmondTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will list the locations of(a) the motorways and (b) the trunk roads on which his Department is inspecting bridges with tensioned steel reinforcing that may be suffering from corrosion from de-icing.
§ Mr. Kenneth CarlisleAll bridges and other structures on the truck road and motorway network in England are inspected at least once every two years. In addition to these regular inspections, each of the post tensioned structures on the network, of which there are approximately 600, will be given a special, more detailed inspection in the course of the next five years.
