HC Deb 14 July 1954 vol 530 c28W
47. Mr. Shepherd

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation whether he has given further consideration to the desirability of continuing with the flashing beacons; and whether he is now in a position to announce the adoption of a more useful and practical alternative.

Mr. Molson

We are satisfied that no better alternative to flashing beacons has been devised as a means of warning motorists of the presence of a pedestrian crossing.
