HC Deb 28 November 1962 vol 668 c54W
54. Sir W. Wakefield

asked the Minister of Transport if he will have the refuges at each end of Orchard Street, W.1, moved aside from the centre of the carriageway so as to allow two vehicles to pass abreast on one side and one on the other side; and if he will have traffic signals installed to tell pedestrians when it is safe to cross.

Mr. Hay

The refuge at the north end of Orchard Street is already offset and we are considering asking the highway authority to do the same at the south end. I am not aware of any special difficulty or danger to pedestrians at either end of Orchard Street.
