NS. Barbara Castle is "following up" a report (page 24) which advocates the segregation of goods vehicles from other traffic. She also told the Commons on Wednesday that draft regulations on noise would be circulated in the next few days. She said that studies were being undertaken on road pricing in congested areas. In the forthcoming Transport Bill she would place a duty on local authorities in connection with traffic management and comprehensive parking policies. Her reference to road pricing stemmed from another report, "Better Use of Town Roads," prepared by a group of government and local authority officials and senior police officers appointed in May 1965.
