§ 89. Sir P. Agnewasked the Minister of Transport why he does not consider it necessary to provide a pedestrian crossing on trunk road A.449 at its junction with Hospital Lane in Powick.
§ Mr. GalbraithI understand that the crossing is required for patients from the nearby Mental Hospital but we do not consider a pedestrian crossing will give adequate safeguards for them. A responsible adult escort is the safest protection in these circumstances.
