§ Mrs. Haymanasked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will now give permission for the installation of a pelican crossing on the A1000 outside Little Heath School, since there is no longer a traffic control warden serving the school.
§ Mr. CarmichaelIf an application for a pelican crossing at this site is received from Hertfordshire County Council it will be given urgent and sympathetic consideration. However, a pelican crossing is not to be regarded as a full substitute for a school crossing patrol.
§ Mr. Crawfordasked the Secretary of State for the Environment what criteria and traffic densities govern the siting of pelican crossings.
§ Mr. CarmichaelThe criteria, which are necessarily complex and lengthy, are set out in circulars to local authorities. I am sending the hon. Member a copy.
