HC Deb 11 November 1968 vol 773 c5W
62. Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware of the continuing difficulties being caused to motorists, pedestrians, local residents and those using public transport by the closing of the intersection on the North Circular Road between the Cock Tavern and the Cambridge Hotel and that traffic jams are exceptional at peak rush hour periods; and whether he will take steps to install a system of traffic signals in place of closing the intersections completely.

Mr. Bob Brown

On 4th November, the gap at Callard Avenue was re-opened and additional movements were permitted through the gap opposite Ashley Gardens. We do not consider traffic signals to be the right solution but will keep the position under review in conjunction with the local authorities and the police.
