Public Consultation

A45/A46 Tollbar End Improvement

In 1998 the Government published 'A New deal for Trunk Roads in England' and identified the A45/A46 Tollbar End as a key junction suffering serious congestion.

An interim improvement measure at Tollbar End with new traffic signals was completed in 2000. This has proved successful in reducing queues and delays. However, the objective of this was to provide relief in the short term and the junction is predicted to become seriously congested by the year 2005. In fact monitoring of the junction in the last year indicates that this will occur sooner.

This information outlines the three long term improvement options being proposed and summarises their key features and the likely effects.

These will be shown at a Public Exhibition local to Tollbar End. The purpose of the exhibition is to inform the public and local business interests and provide the opportunity to express an opinion on the proposals.
