HC Deb 05 August 1965 vol 717 c415W
Mr. Duffy

asked the Minister of Transport, if he will arrange for a more intensive siting of maximum speed signs in restricted areas.

Mr. Tom Fraser

General directions governing the siting of speed limit signs already require signs to be erected on both sides of the road at each end of each restricted length, on both sides of each side road where it joins the restricted length and, where the limit is 30 or 40 m.p.h. and there are either no street lamps or such lamps are more than 200 yards apart, at intervals not exceeding 300 yards, or in some cases 325 yards, along the restricted road. I consider that these arrangements are adequate.
