§ 65. Sir D. Walker-Smithasked the Minister of Transport whether he will expedite the provision of a light controlled crossing on the A10 trunk road at Wormley, Hertfordshire, and the provision of a pedestrian crossing at Spitalbrook on the same road as requested by the Road Safety Committee and the Hoddesdon Urban District Council.
§ Mr. MarshI have approved the replacement of the zebra crossing at Wormley by a Pelican light-controlled crossing. The changeover will be carried out as soon as the equipment becomes available which should be about mid-July.
The need for pedestrian crossing facilities at Spitalbrook is recognised but there are considerable siting difficulties to overcome. My divisional road engineer is now examining the possibility of a footbridge and I will write to the hon. and learned Member when this investigation has been completed.
