HC Deb 15 November 1967 vol 754 c113W
60. Rear-Admiral Morgan Giles

asked the Minister of Transport whether she will impose a 40 miles per hour speed limit on the A36 road between Whin-whistle Corner and Plaitford

Mr. Carmichael

The extension of the existing footpath, which is now in hand, is likely to be more effective than a 40 m.p.h. limit in increasing the safety of pedestrians on this length of road. When this measure has been given a reasonable trial, we will consider whether any further improvements are necessary.
