HC Deb 07 July 1966 vol 731 c97W
73. Mr. Wingfield Digby

asked the Minister of Transport what estimate she has made of the views of motorists on the continuation of the 70 miles per hour limit on motorways, in view of the evidence of the special survey by the Automobile Association showing 73 per cent. against it.

Mr. John Morris

We have not seen the Automobile Association's special survey. The Road Research Laboratory's Interim Report on the 70 m.p.h. speed limit trial, which will be published tomorrow, contains a section about motorists' views on the limit.

Mr. Wellbeloved

asked the Minister of Transport when the Road Research Laboratory's fuller assessment of the 70 miles per hour speed limit trial will be published.

Mrs. Castle

On Friday, 8th July. Copies will be placed in the Vote Office.
