§ 37. Mr. HANNONasked the Home Secretary whether his attention has been 2107 called to the danger to pedestrians crossing the street from the corner of St. Margaret's Church to Parliament Square, in view of the new traffic regulations, which causes vehicles coming from Whitehall and from Abingdon Street to turn that corner; and whether he will consider the desirability of having an island placed in the centre of the road?
§ Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKSThe position of the refuges, etc., is under review by the London Traffic Committee, and on their recommendation the refuge at the south-east corner of the Square has been moved to a position where it will serve the purpose I think my hon. Friend has in mind. It is not at present clear that there is any need for a second refuge on the south side of the Square, but the question will be kept in view.
