HC Deb 13 July 1999 vol 335 cc128-9W
28. Mr. Greenway

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions what assessment he has made of the case for a bypass for the village of Reighton in North Yorkshire. [89503]

Ms Glenda Jackson

The proposal for a bypass of Reighton is the responsibility of North Yorkshire County Council as local highway authority. Any bid for funding for the scheme in the forthcoming provisional Local Transport Plan will be considered on its merits. All schemes costing more than £5 million need to be appraised using the New Approach to Appraisal.
