Proceeding contribution from Tom Harris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Road Safety Bill [Lords].
Road Safety Bill [Lords]
The hon. Gentleman is right. That is where the role of local authorities is crucial. There is no point in considering a single road and deciding on a solution. A strategy has to be considered so that if traffic calming is implemented on one or two local roads, the knock-on effects on nearby roads are taken into account. In my experience, Strathclyde regional council, where I used to work, had a good record of doing exactly that—as does Glasgow city council.
