HC Deb 10 February 1899 vol 66 c510
GENERAL RUSSELL (Cheltenham)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he can see his way to introduce in London the regulations which are in force in many foreign capitals, and which restrict the use of the most crowded thoroughfares by vans, drays, carts, and other heavy vehicles to certain hours in the day, early in the morning, and late at night?

THE SECRETARY OP STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT

I propose to bring in a Bill giving increased powers to the police to make regulations for the traffic in the streets of the metropolis.
