§ 59. Mr. Asshetonasked the Minister of Transport whether he will consider the desirability of discontinuing pedestrian passage-ways at controlled crossings as they constitute traps for unwary pedestrians?
§ Mr. Hore-BelishaIt would not be practicable to adopt this suggestion, as when the police are not on duty the crossings are uncontrolled, and when they are on duty no difficulty should arise.
§ Mr. AsshetonIs the Minister aware that in many of these places the police are always on duty during the day?
§ Mr. Hore-BelishaIt is not always the case; they may be in some places.
