HC Deb 28 November 1988 vol 142 c165W
72. Mr. Harry Greenway

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what action he is taking to speed up London traffic; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Peter Bottomley

We are improving trunk roads to help orbital traffic and to replace bottlenecks. We are supporting similar borough schemes with grants. We have given traffic management guidance to the boroughs. We are using new technology to improve traffic signalling. We support autoguide. We are encouraging effective parking controls. We are promoting attractive public transport systems.
