HC Deb 12 January 1999 vol 323 c164W
23. Ms Keeble

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what assessment he has made of traffic congestion on the London to Northampton section of the Ml. [63588]

Ms Glenda Jackson

Traffic flows on the MI are continually monitored. Published stress levels show that north of Luton (Junction 10), the M1 generally operates satisfactorily. To the south of Luton the road experiences peak period congestion for at least half the days of the year.
