HC Deb 27 January 1947 vol 432 cc124-5W
124. Mr. Mikardo

asked the Minister of Transport whether he has considered the one-way traffic plan for Central London, details of which have been submitted to him; and whether he will refer this proposal to an appropriate committee for expert examination and report.

Mr. Barnes

Yes, Sir, and I have asked the London and Home Counties Traffic Advisory Committee to examine the plan and report to me on it.

128. Commander Noble

asked the Minister of Transport when he expects to produce a plan to ease the traffic congestion in the Metropolitan area.

Mr. Barnes

The London and Home Counties Traffic Advisory Committee are, at my request, examining the means for relieving congestion in the streets of London. As their recommendations reach me I shall, in consultation with the police and other authorities concerned, put into force any practicable measures which appear likely to be effective.
