HC Deb 22 June 1967 vol 748 cc325-6W
64. Mr. Berry

asked the Minister of Transport how many accidents have occurred on the new experimental pedestrian crossings in London; what prosecutions have taken place or are pending in this connection; and whether she will make a statement.

Mrs. Castle

Since the X-way pedestrian crossing experiment began in March there have been 14 accidents on them in the Metropolitan Police Area. To date there have been three prosecutions and none is pending. Evaluation of the experiment will start in October and I hope to be able to make a statement before the end of the year.
