THE Minister of Transport has made
permanent no-waiting regulations under the Eonden Traffic Act, 1924, to replace his temporary Orders hithertoin force under Defence Regulations.
The regulations will also restore the original no-waiting restrictions on a number of streets in inner London which were removed from the Minister's Order in May this year so that the police could impose more extensive restrictions under their own powers as extended by the. Festival of Britain Act.
The new regulations came into force last Monday. The position is now the same as it was when the Minister made his yellow-band Orders .under Defence Regulations... The same prohibited hourswill apply, that .is, in the City of London between 9 a.m. and 6.30 p.m. on Mondays to Fridays; in the
inner area of London between 11.30 am. and 6.30 p.m. on Mondays to Fridays; and in the outer area between . 11.30 a.m. and 6.30 p.m. on Mondays • to Saturdays.
• Many local authorities in London have submitted further proposals to the Minister, including requests for additional streets to be subject to no-waiting restrictions. These pro
posals are being considered and may be the subject of amending regulations.
