§ 74. Mr. Whitlockasked the Minister of Transport why he has not agreed to the proposed extension of the 30 miles per hour speed limit on the A.611 and B.6011 north of Hucknall, in view of the reply of the Parliamentary Secretary to the hon. Member for Nottingham, North, on this point on 31st July, 1963
§ Mr. MarplesI could not agree to the proposed extension of the speed limit on these roads because they are not in a built-up area, and a 30 miles per hour speed limit would not be appropriate. On 31st July my hon. Friend spoke of placing warning signs on the main road farther from the junction. The highway authorities concerned have now done this.
