HC Deb 09 March 1960 vol 619 c31W
3. Mr. Langford-Holt

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that, while Birdcage Walk is being altered, marching troops using the carriage-way cause all traffic in one direction to proceed at marching pace; and whether he will arrange that during such alterations troops either proceed in single file or use the footway.

Mr. Soames

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for bringing this matter to my attention. Arrangements were made for marching troops to avoid Birdcage Walk during the remainder of the work there. I understand that the repairs have now been completed.
