§ 19. Mr. Duffyasked the Minister of Transport what steps he proposes to take to keep long-distance and other forms of through traffic out of urban areas that have been provided with by-pass routes.
§ Mr. GalbraithIf a town has an adequate by pass route, and if the local authority is anxious to keep through traffic, especially heavy goods vehicles, out of the town centre, we will willingly consider what we can do to help. We have already confirmed Orders in this sense made by two Councils, and my right hon. Friend proposes himself to make Regulations prohibiting through lorries from using certain streets in the City of London during the day.
