Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hodge of Barking (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 December 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Stonehenge.
Stonehenge
Of course, but my understanding —I am no transport expert—is that the responsibility for determining the road's future is classified as lying with the regional authorities. Interestingly, when the region made its recent determination of allocations and transport priorities, it decided not to allocate funding for improvements to the A303 until about 2014. I have not checked, but that may well have been because it was waiting for central Government's decisions on the tunnel. At the meeting that we had on 10 December, Juliet Williams, who chairs the south-west RDA, said several times that improvements to the road infrastructure were a significant regional priority, so I am pretty confident that the region will revisit how it decides to spend its money.
