§ Mr. Binghamasked the Minister of Transport whether he will authorise improved facilities for pedestrians crossing St. Mary's Road, Garston, Liverpool.
§ Mr. MarplesYes. I am prepared to authorise the installation of traffic light signals at the junction of St. Mary's Road with Church Road and Speke Road, and the Liverpool Corporation is now seeking quotations for the equipment. Besides enabling pedestrians to cross at the lights, the installation will provide breaks in the traffic flow, which will further improve the situation for pedestrians wishing to cross St. Mary's Road elsewhere.
