IDS in the Transport Question- House of Commons

Speaking today in Transport Questions, I asked the Minister for Transport about the closure of Broadmead Road Bridge.

I raised concerns about the impact the closure is having on the wider community and the diversions which results in an incident yesterday on Snakes Lane East in which a young child was sadly hit by a vehicle. My thoughts are with the family, and I will continue to press Redbridge Council to introduce appropriate speed limits. 

Listen to the Minister's response on my Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1FHdNE4tN1/?mibextid=wwXIfr
