Milestones

Set limits for roadworks on motorways and A roads including: - Limiting lane closures to 3 miles maximum on motorways, 1 mile on A roads. - No roadworks or lane closures allowed within 20 miles of other works. - All work areas resourced 24 hours a day in non-residential areas until completion.

We believe that continuous lane closure disruption may cause: - Increased potential for accidents - Reduced access for emergency vehicles - Delayed business deliveries - Difficulty planning journeys - Increased journey times - Personal stress - Road rage - Lateness for medical appointments, work, school, flights, etc. - Damage to the environment due to pollution from concentrated stationary traffic
