HC Deb 07 June 1920 vol 130 cc9-10
14. Viscount CURZON

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware of the public inconvenience, danger, and loss of time caused by existing level crossings over public highways; and whether he is taking steps to ensure that all proposals which are put forward in railway bills for making additional level crossings are being carefully examined and reported on by the Roads Department of his Ministry?

Sir E. GEDDES

The answer to both parts of the question is in the affirmative.

Mr. STEWART

Will the right hon. Gentleman try and get the railway companies to carry out the promises they made before the War with regard to level crossings?

Sir E. GEDDES

I shall be glad to go into the matter if my right hon. Friend will send me particulars of any cases.
