Closed petition OPPOSE THE A556 ROAD PROPOSAL 2012

Closed on 24 April 2012

To stop the proposed A556 improvements? taking place and to request that the agencies involved look to improving the motorway network at Jct 20 of the M6 and Jct 9 of the M56, to allow motorway drivers to stay on a motorway therefore allowing them to maintain motorway speeds to reduce time by avoiding local traffic and delays on their travels.

Their arguement is that the current A556 as a trunk road between the M6 and M56 needs improving. Our arguement is that the only reason that the A556 is used as a trunk road is that there is no way of moving from the M6 to the M56 and vice versa without coming off it! Surely one can see that it would be preferable to all to be able to keep on the motorway when travelling across country. It has been archived that when the M56 was built, that this was a glaring ommision.
