HC Deb 24 November 1980 vol 994 c28W
Mr. Barry Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if, in view of the incidence of fatal accidents in the vicinity of Alltami crossroads, Mold, Clwyd, he will take urgent action as requested by local residents; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Michael Roberts

Urgent action is being taken to provide additional safety measures on the A494 trunk road in the vicinity of the Alltami crossroads. Double white lines have already been laid; "Slow" carriageway markings, "Road Narrows" signs and edge of carriageway markings are also to be installed. The Department is also undertaking counts of traffic and turning movements to assess whether traffic signals would secure an improvement. I shall be writing to the hon. Member about these matters.
