§ 53. Mr. T. HENDERSON (for Mr. CASSELLS)asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware of the high incidence of accidents, both fatal and otherwise, at the crossing known as Earl's Gates, in the county of Stirling; and is he prepared to instruct traffic signals to be placed at this crossing?
Captain HUDSON"Halt" signs have recently been erected at this crossing. If 1423 these do not prove effective, my right hon. Friend will certainly give immediate consideration to any proposal submitted by the highway authority for making the junction safer, whether by way of traffic light signals or otherwise.
