that a census had been taken at this spot, covering ,200 vehicles over a two-hour period. The findings showed that few travel­ led below 30 mph, most went at 30 to; 35 fnph, and only nine ex­ ceeded 40 mph. Nevertheless,-the junction had


been considered as a possible site for a radar trap. Coun. _ Todd described how

the junction of the inner by-pass and Whalley Road would appear when • alterations were made: traffic from the Whalley direc­ tion would have to use the by­ pass for about 25 yards before turning sharp left to come up Moor Lane and into the town. The chairman, Coun, W. Tay­
