(asked on 4th July 2016) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will take steps to endorse automated cone laying and retrieval for road maintenance worker safety.
This question was answered on 11th July 2016
While the safety of road maintenance workers is of paramount importance, neither the Secretary of State nor I endorse particular products.
Highways England and the Department for Transport fully support innovative techniques and I would refer the Honourable Gentleman to my previous response of 4 November 2015 (UIN 13581).
