HL Deb 20 November 2000 vol 619 cc54-5WA
Lord Marlesford

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether, in view of the accident record at the junction of the M.25 and the A.13 roads, they will expedite the provision of traffic lights at that junction; which other road junctions with the M.25 do not have traffic lights; and in each case by which date, if any, they expect to install traffic lights. [HL4564]

Lord Whitty

Design work for a full signalisation of this junction is currently in progress and work to install signals at the A.13 junction with the M.25 (Junction 30) is scheduled to start next financial year. The programming of the scheme is currently being examined.

The following table lists the other junctions on the M.25; whether they are signalised and, if not, any plans to signalise them in the near future.
