Weymouth Relief Road

Volume 447: debated on Monday 19 June 2006

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what role the South West regional assembly will play in determining the priority given to building the Weymouth relief road. (78432)

The South West regional assembly was one of the principal organisations which contributed to the advice provided by the south west region in January 2006 on the priority that it attaches to major transport schemes in the south west including the Weymouth relief road. The advice included proposals for the delivery timescales for transport schemes within the indicative regional funding allocation for the south west. We are currently considering this advice and hope to announce our response to it before the summer recess.
