Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

LONDON NEXT YEAR 1I/TORE lengths of road 'in the London M Traffic Area are to have 40 m.p.h. restrictions, following a report to the Minister of Transport by the London and Home Counties Traffic Advisory Committee. This move, affecting 24 miles of road, will be the second stage of the general 40 m.p.h. speed limit experiment in London—the first stage came into operation last March.

Eighteen of the 24 miles are at present covered by a 30 m.p.h. limit, and the remainder is unrestricted. The new regulations will come into operation on February 14, and a month later the Minister will probably begin a report for Parliament aimed at extending the 40 m.p.h. scheme to places where similar conditions exist outside London.
