Public Exhibition Report - Executive Summary

Introduction

The A453 east of the M1 is a major route between Nottingham, the M1, and Nottingham East Midlands Airport. The existing single carriageway road has become increasingly congested, carrying up to 32,000 vehicles per day, has a poor safety record, and poses maintenance difficulties.

The proposed improvement scheme, costing approximately £90 million, is to widen the A453 to dual carriageway between Junction 24 of the M1 and Clifton, and to a four-lane single carriageway through Clifton from the Crusader Roundabout to Farnborough Road junction, at the start of the A52 Nottingham Ring Road.
