HC Deb 24 July 1941 vol 373 c1069W
Mr. Kennedy

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of War Transport whether he is aware that the divisional road engineer of the Ministry of Transport at Edinburgh has refused to grant the application of the Fife County Council for approval to the erection of a halt sign on the WindygatesLeven road at Scoonie roundabout; that the black-out and the great extent to which military traffic has increased make it essential in the interests of public safety that the halt sign should be erected; and whether he can now take steps towards the approval of the county council's desire?

Colonel Llewellin

This roundabout was constructed in 1938 to facilitate free movement of traffic. Halt signs are intended for use at junctions where the view from a minor road of traffic on a major road is very restricted and the volume of traffic is considerable. They are not intended for use at roundabouts.
