§ Mr. Kershawasked the Minister of Transport what conclusion he has been able to draw from his experiment with overtaking markings on the Great North Road where it is three-way; whether he will apply those conclusions to the A.38 between Bristol and Gloucester; and whether he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Tom FraserIt is still too early to draw conclusions from the markings on A.1, which are on a straight length of this road, whereas A.38 is winding. The current experiment with offset double white lines on A.4 near Reading will be much more relevant to A.38; but this experiment will not be concluded before the end of this year.
