HC Deb 10 November 1938 vol 341 c326W
Mr. Leach

asked the Minister of Transport whether he can now see his way to grant the request of the responsible council and local residents of East Acton for a speed restriction for Western Avenue, where numerous accidents have occurred and where grave anxiety exists among all sections of the residents?

Mr. Burgin

This road is being provided with dual carriageways, cycle tracks, and footbridges or subways at certain points, and in my judgment these measures are more calculated to ensure the safety of all road users than the imposition of a speed limit would be.
