§ Mr. Gowerasked the Minister of Transport if he will reconsider the representations made to him by the Whitchurch Parish Council, Glamorgan-shire, about the Manor Way by-pass road through Whitchurch, Glamorgan; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. MarplesThe Whitchurch Parish Council has made a number of suggestions to us in regard to speed limits, traffic signals and a pedestrian crossing on this length of road. We will consider the imposition of a 40 m.p.h. speed limit on the by-pass if and when Parliament approve the use of that limit on appropriate lengths of road throughout the country. If the by-pass proves suitable for a 40 m.p.h. limit we will also consider the question of providing traffic lights at the junction with Pantmawr Road.
