Calls are being made for government intervention
Delays at a junction of the M1 on the Nottinghamshire border are costing the economy more than £4.5million a year, a transport body has said. Midlands Connect said its research showed there are more than 1,100 hours of delay in peak periods at junction 28.
Midlands Connect, a government-funded body, said it calculated the economic impact of the delays by using a model that assesses the lost value of time for cars, vans, and HGVs, for business, commuting and leisure journeys to the wider economy.It is recommended improvements should be considered for funding as part of the Government’s third Road Investment Strategy.
"Historically, of course, our area has received less investment in our transport infrastructure than other regions have over many years, so I hope that government will give proper consideration to this issue.’’ Midlands Connect said there are nearly £500,000 in losses due to HGV drivers being snarled up in traffic, with commuter losses totalled at £1,621,906.
