HC Deb 28 September 1939 vol 351 c1507W
Mr. Hopkin

asked the Minister of Transport whether his attention has been called to the recent fatal accident at the cross-roads in St. Clears, Carmarthenshire, and to previous accidents at this point; and whether he will now agree to put traffic lights at these cross-roads?

Captain Wallace

I learned with regret of a fatal accident on 5th September at the junction of the London-Fishguard Trunk Road with routes A.447 and B.4313 at St. Clears, Carmarthenshire. There are advance direction signs on the Trunk Road and "Halt" signs on the two side roads, and the due observance of the existing directions should make the junction safe. I am, however, having a special inquiry made into the causes of the accident to see whether further traffic control measures are necessary at this point.
