To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department holds information on levels of congestion on Moor Farm Roundabout between the A19, A1 and A189.
Lilian Greenwood
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
The Department holds and publishes data on the average speed and delay for both the strategic road network, of which the A19 and A1 form part, and locally managed ‘A’ roads, of which the A189 forms part. Datasets are available on the Department for Transport’s website for the strategic road network (https://dft.maps.arcgis.com/apps/instant/portfolio/index.html?appid=0e99fa1f832d4f5cb240ab7e0fca0d46) and the local road network (https://dft.maps.arcgis.com/apps/instant/portfolio/index.html?appid=d16db07065864eb0a29df1ea9152590d).
It is important to note that although figures are produced for average speed and average delay on both the Local ‘A’ and SRN networks, methodological differences between the Local ‘A’ road and SRN data prevents direct comparison between the two road types.

Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
