HC Deb 18 November 1925 vol 188 cc412-3W
Colonel DAY

asked the Home Secretary whether the recommendation of Sir William Rhys, magistrate at the Wood Green Police Court, to the Commissioner of Police, suggesting that a police point should be made where the north circular arterial road crosses the Green Lanes main road, on the Enfield-London road, has been received; and whether such police point has yet been made?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

The Commissioner of Police duly received Sir William Rhys's recommendation, but, after careful consideration and examination of traffic conditions at the point in question, came to the conclusion that the volume of traffic is not such as to justify the permanent employment of a constable for traffic control. Arrangements, however, have been made for white lines and the word "slow" to be painted on the roadway, and it is understood that certain property which at present obstructs the road at this corner will be demolished in the near future.
