§ Mr. VazTo ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if she will make a statement on her policy on toll roads. [31961]
§ Mr. Paul MurphyThere are no toll roads in Northern Ireland at present. Tolling is considered as an option, where the circulation arrangements are appropriate, to advance the provision of desirable schemes. In this context, consideration is being given to the possibility of a small privately funded toll road to by-pass the village of Toome in County Antrim.
