HC Deb 11 March 1929 vol 226 c809W
Sir R. THOMAS

asked the Minister of Transport whether he has any new proposals for regulating traffic in the small streets surrounding Covent Garden Market, with a view to relieving the congestion there and reducing the waste of time and inconvenience involved?

Colonel ASHLEY

Arrangements are being made for the introduction of one-way working, i.e., from east to west, in Maiden Lane, but I regret that it is not considered practicable, at any rate at the present time, to make any further arrangements of this nature with a view to relieving the congestion in the neighbourhood of Covent Garden Market.
