§ Mr. Patrick Maitlandasked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation whether he will publish the results of the traffic census at Abington in the county of Lanark; and if he will state the density of Glasgow-bound traffic through Hamilton and East Kilbride, respectively.
§ Mr. Boyd-CarpenterThe records of the traffic census taken in August last show that at the census point on A.74 South of Abington total traffic passing in both directions averaged 3,741 vehicles for a 16-hour day. North of Hamilton the corresponding figures were 5,151 on A.74 and 3,500 on A.724, and North of East Kilbride 2,270 on A.749; it is estimated that approximately half these figures would represent Glasgow-bound traffic.
