HC Deb 10 June 1985 vol 80 c372W
28. Mr. Amess

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what criteria have been used in the location of road signs in Essex and elsewhere incorporating direction to Basildon; and if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Chalker

The criteria are that a primary route destination should be signposted from the previous such destination. So far, following agreement last year that Basildon should be a primary destination, only some place-name signs have been provided, but I have given instructions that the remaining work should be carried out as soon as possible.
