TRAFFIC PROBLEM
CONGESTED STREETS. Ministry Of Transport Urged. N.S.W. INQUIRY. (By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright.) (Received 12 noou.) SYDNEY, this day. The Traffic Advisory Committee appointed by the State Government to investigate traffic problems, recommends the establishment of a Ministry of Transport fully empowered to deal with the conditions at present contributing to the congestion in city streets.
So far as Sydney is concerned it is suggested that surface trams should continue until the underground railway system is completed. '
A trial of double-decker trams and buses and the co-ordination of these services is advocated in the interests of economy of street space and improved transportation for the public.
Direct State roads for fast motor traffic are also suggested.
