Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Health, if he will withdraw the plan to construct a new roundabout on Christchurch Road in Epsom as part of the proposed West Park Development.

Answer: Chris Grayling: To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will withdraw the plan to construct a new roundabout on Christchurch Road in Epsom as part of the proposed West Park development. [55638] Ms Blears: The proposed roundabout is intended to provide access to the West Park site in conjunction with the existing access from Horton Lane. Two vehicular access points into the site represents good practice in terms of road design and safety, urban design, public transport, emergency access and egress as well as an advantageous traffic management plan to both the retained health care uses and the proposed new development.
