Mr. Mitchellasked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the large housing estate in the neighbourhood of the junction of Clayponds Lane with the Great West Road involving pedestrians crossing this junction frequently, he will consider the installation of traffic-control signals at that place?
§ Mr. BurginAs my hon. Friend will be aware, the reconstruction of the Great West Road has been commenced near this junction, and in these circumstances it is not practicable to provide traffic lights at this crossing at the present time. I further understand that the existing volume of traffic in Clayponds Lane at its junction with the Great West Road does not justify the provision of light-control signals. I am, however, keeping the position under review.
