Motorways (Speed Limit)

HC Deb 30 November 1966 vol 737 cc113-4W

Mr. Peter Walker

asked the Minister of Transport whether she proposes to make the 70 mile per hour speed limit on motorways an advisory one.

Mr. John Morris

I would remind the hon. Member of what my right hon. Friend said in the House on 17th May last. The 70 m.p.h. experimental speed limit will remain in its present mandatory form until 3rd September, 1967. [Vol. 728, c. 1283.]
