HC Deb 16 January 1985 vol 71 cc132-3W
Mr. D. E. Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Transport if he will consider introducing a speed limit on single track roads in upland areas.

Mrs. Chalker

The national speed limit of 60mph applies to all single carriageway roads and I have no evidence that a lower national limit is needed on single track roads. Lower limits may be imposed locally where appropriate.
