§ Mr. Kershawasked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the recent accidents on the A.38 between Bristol and Gloucester, he will now set up a Departmental inquiry to investigate as a matter of urgency what special safety measures ought to be applied to this stretch of highway.
§ Mr. Tom FraserMuch as I regret the recent fatal accident near Falfield, I see no advantage in a special inquiry. My divisional road engineer regularly reviews with the county surveyor the safety measures on this road, such as lane markings and junction layouts, and this he will continue to do.
