HC Deb 22 November 1973 vol 864 c515W
Mr. Loveridge

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will estimate how many accidents have taken place at traffic light crossings since the work restrictions over the repair of traffic lights came into force; and how many accidents occurred at traffic light crossings in the same period last year, with sets of figures to include any deaths that occurred as a result of the accidents within the period.

Mr. Speed

It is estimated that there have been 122 personal injury accidents at inoperative signals in the Metropolitan Police District since the work restrictions started. Comparable figures for the same period last year are not available. I am writing to my hon. Friend.
