HC Deb 12 January 1977 vol 923 cc485-6W
27. Mr. Costain

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he is aware that since the abolition of parking in Hythe High Street traffic is proceeding at a dangerous speed; and if he will impose a speed limit of 20 mph on this section of the road.

Mr. Horam

I know that the arrangements to improve traffic flow in Hythe High Street have caused concern, but I have no evidence that the road has in fact become more dangerous. I do not believe that a speed limit below 30 mph would be justified.
