§ Sir Clive Bossomasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what plans he has to provide automatic half-barriers at level crossings on trunk and principal roads in Scotland, and to build bridges or underpasses to replace such level crossings.
§ Mr. Gordon CampbellI understand that there are no applications from British Rail for such provision at present before my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for the Environment. I propose to substitute a road over-bridge for a half-barrier level crossing at Gollanfield on the trunk road A92. All other such crossings in Scotland are on roads for which local authorities are responsible.
§ Sir Clive Bossomasked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many level crossings there are on trunk and principal roads in Scotland, and how many of these are automatic half-barrier level crossings.
§ Mr. Gordon CampbellThere are 15 public level crossings on trunk and principal roads in Scotland, of which two are equipped with automatic half-barriers.
