§ 85. Sir C. Taylorasked the Minister of Transport whether he will make a statement about the Polegate to Eastbourne 138W A.22 road at Lower Willingdon; and whether he is now prepared to impose a 30 miles per hour limit through Lower Willingdon.
§ Mr. HayThe East Sussex County Council and our Divisional Road Engineer are investigating the possibility of improving conditions at Lower Willingdon by providing a more uniform widening of the road and installing more refuges to assist pedestrians in crossing. Conditions on this road are not suitable for a 30 m.p.h. speed limit. We might, however, consider the possibility of a 40 m.p.h. limit if and when Parliament approve the application of that limit outside the London Traffic Area.
