HC Deb 01 December 1927 vol 211 c674
7. Mr. WALTER BAKER

asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that the traffic constable stationed at the corner of Sternhold Avenue and Streatham Hill has a difficult task to control the cross traffic owing to the speed of the vehicles using the main road, and because of his inability to see oncoming traffic from London owing to the line of vision being obstructed by stationary tramcars; and whether he will consider the possibility of 0placing a traffic constable on the opposite side of the thoroughfare at the bottom of Leigham Court Road or, alternatively, place a warning notice on the London side of the cross road?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

Arrangements have been made to set back the stopping point for southbound tramcars at this junction, and it is hoped that this will obviate the difficulty to which the hon. Member refers. The question of exhibiting a warning notice is being taken up with the local authority concerned.
