HC Deb 16 July 1958 vol 591 c95W
Mr. A. Evans

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation if he will ask the Divisional Road Engineer for the Metropolitan area to consider and report if there are sufficient grounds for establishing a pedestrian crossing over that part of Copenhagen Street which runs from Caledonian Road to Barnsbury Road in the Metropolitan Borough of Islington.

Mr. Watkinson

The Divisional Road Engineer has reported to me that the number of pedestrians crossing Copenhagen Street between the Caledonian Road and Barnsbury Road junctions, both of which are controlled by traffic lights, is insufficient, even at peak hours, to warrant the installation of a pedestrian crossing. I am informed that the Commissioner of Police for the Metropolis agrees with this view.
