HC Deb 02 June 1997 vol 295 c65W
Mr. Nigel Jones

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will make a statement on the time scale for progress towards de-trunking the A40 through Cheltenham. [1254]

Ms Glenda Jackson

Objectives received following the publication of a draft Order to de-trunk the A40 through Cheltenham and to trunk the A436 from the A40 at Shipton Solers to the A417 at Air Balloon roundabout are currently being considered. The timescale for the de-trunking depends on the possible need for a public inquiry.
