To ask the Secretary of State for Transport how many bypass roads have been constructed since 1979; and if he will make a statement.
Mr. Key
One hundred and sixty-two bypasses have been constructed on the national road network since 1979. Most of the 250 other road schemes constructed since 1979 have also removed traffic from local communities.
