HC Deb 07 February 1956 vol 548 c168W
55. Mr. Russell

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will arrange for mobile police to control traffic in East Lane, Wembley, when the General Electric Company's factory closes in the evening, to minimise the danger of accidents to employees when leaving.

Major Lloyd-George

I am informed by the Commissioner of Police that he has made arrangements for police with public address equipment to attend at this spot for a period at the evening rush hour to assist and give advice to pedestrians and others. But I hope that pedestrians will also assist by exercising restraint instead of attempting to rush across the road regardless of the traffic on it.

56. Mr. Russell

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many drivers have been prosecuted in recent months for exceeding the speed limit in East Lane, Wembley.

Major Lloyd-George

Fourteen during the last twelve months.
