HC Deb 14 December 1960 vol 632 c45W
57. Mr. E. Johnson

asked the Minister of Transport if he has given further consideration to the advantages of the expanded metal anti-dazzle fence on the M.1 motorway; and if he will extend it for the full length of the motorway, and have a similar fence erected on all motorways.

Mr. Marples

This experimental screen has been found to have disadvantages as well as advantages. It is not yet established that in present traffic conditions there is a good case for bringing such a screen into general use on motorways. Pending further experience, I do not propose to extend the screen on the M.1 or install it on other motorways.
