§ 69. Sir R. CLOUGHasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Transport, whether he can state the policy of his Department towards trackless trolleys; and whether, in view of the need of efficient roads where they are used, he is stimulating the policy, in all these cases, of more enduring road reconstruction?
§ Mr. NEALSubject to the design and weight of trackless trolley vehicles being suitable to the roads on which they are run, I see no general objection to them, but each case must be judged on its merits. There is no substantial difference from a road damage point of view between trackless trolley vehicles, motor omnibuses and other heavy traffic, and no special kind of road reconstruction is necessary.
