Mr. Langford-Holt
asked the Minister of Transport how many miles of the London to Holyhead road, running between London and Shrewsbury, are considered too narrow for this type of main road; what steps he proposes to take to bring the whole length of the road up to a satisfactory width; and when this work will be completed.
