HC Deb 16 January 1989 vol 145 c83W
19. Mr. Amos

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will give more discretion to his regional directors of transport regarding the erection of signs in rural areas.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

Traffic signs must be based on clear principles applied consistently throughout the country.

We are currently consulting on changes to the regulations which will widen the choice of standard signs.
