Administrative / biographical background: |
The London Traffic Advisory Committee was established in November 1919 under the chairmanship of Mr. Kennedy Jones. The Committee's task was to co-ordinate and improve London traffic mainly through existing powers, and to consider and recommend a permanent Controlling Authority. Technical sub-committees on traffic regulation, improvement of street facilities, and future development, were appointed and met regularly until the issue of the Commission's report in March 1920. From that date only Sub-Committee no.1 (on traffic regulation) continued to operate, and its functions were absorbed by the new London and Home Counties Traffic Advisory Committee in November 1924. |
