§ Mr. Nottasked the Minister of Transport if she will take measures to enforce a speed limit on the A3071 where it passes through the village of Newbridge, near Penzance, Cornwall; and if she will also prohibit traffic from overtaking in the village by having double white lines painted down the centre of the road.
§ Mr. John MorrisThere is no speed limit on this road, and we have not received an application for my right hon. Friend's consent to one. I understand, 291W however, that the County Council intends to review the position.
Double white lines are not provided to prevent overtaking, and they would not be appropriate here.
