§ 54. Mr. Wingfield Digbyasked the Minister of Transport what plans he has for segregating different types of traffic, 45W especially the fast and the very slow, and so avoiding accidents.
§ Mr. MarplesSome segregation is already being achieved by the exclusion of pedestrians and certain vehicles from motorways and by the provision of cycle tracks on all-purpose roads where there is sufficient demand to justify them. I am at present considering the views of representative organisations about whether mopeds should be allowed to use cycle tracks. I am also examining the possibility of separating pedestrians more effectively from wheeled traffic in towns. A start has been made by the provision of subways for pedestrians under a number of main traffic routes.
