§ 7. Sir Richard Pilkingtonasked the Minister of Works what improvements he intends to make at the Alexandra Gate of Hyde Park, near the Albert Memorial, in order to relieve traffic congestion.
§ Lord John HopeNone, Sir, at present.
§ Sir Richard PilkingtonIs my right hon. Friend aware that this is one of the worst bottlenecks in London at present? Is there not a good deal of room for a roundabout to be put there, and will he look at this problem, which has been outstanding for a long time?
§ Lord John HopeI am aware that my hon. Friend and others have given considerable thought to this problem, but I think he would agree that it is better now to wait until the Park Lane scheme comes into operation, as that may be very relevant to what we do there.
