§ 67. Mr. John Leeasked the Minister of Transport what instructions or guidance are currently being given by her Department to local authorities to encourage the construction of more pedestrian subways and bridges to facilitate safe road crossing in built-up areas and to discourage the making of further pedestrian crossings.
§ Mr. John MorrisThe manual "Roads in Urban Areas", which has recently been circulated to local authorities, recommends the segregation of motor vehicles from pedestrians in urban areas where practicable and gives advice on the design of facilities for this purpose. In addition, the advice of my right hon. Friend's Divisional Road Engineers is always available to local authorities.
