Question: To ask the Deputy Prime Minister, what the proposed timetable is for the building of the Rushenden Link Road on the Isle of Sheppey.

Answer: Mr. Wyatt: To ask the Deputy Prime Minister what the proposed timetable is for the building of the Rushenden Link Road on the Isle of Sheppey. [197728] Keith Hill: It is for Kent county council, as the Local Highway Authority, to bring forward any proposals for the Rushenden Link Road scheme. It has not been set out as a priority for the council during their current Local Transport Plan (LTP) period (to 2005-06). If the scheme is progressed it will be through developer funding and as such the time scale is dependent on the private sector.
