HC Deb 11 March 1965 vol 708 c152W
Mr. Hugh Jenkins

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware that people living on the Alton Estate, Roehampton, are separated from the village and that children are separated from their schools by a main road without traffic signals; and if he will install a system, pending the construction of a subway.

Mr. Tom Fraser

Yes. The London County Council, as the improvement authority, are, with my approval, installing traffic signals at the junction of Roehampton Lane with Danebury Avenue and Roehampton High Street. These should be working before long. Island refuges are also being installed close to the junction. In addition to these measures there are already a zebra crossing near the junction with Medfield Street and a central reservation from just south of Alton Road to the junction with Kingston Road.
