HC Deb 05 May 1959 vol 605 c37W
Mr. F. Noel-Baker

asked the Minister of Transport and Civil Aviation what progress has been made towards the introduction of road signs of a similar design to those in use on the continent of Europe, in view of the increasing number of motorists who, from time to time, use both British and continental roads.

Mr. Watkinson

Regulations that bring our system of carriageway markings into conformity in certain important respects with the European Agreement on Road Markings were laid before Parliament on 28th April. Our experimental motorway signs are also close to Continental practice.
