MP's Meet to discuss Government Funding to Improve & Upgrade the A5

The following article was taken from a post published by local MP Craig Tracey:

'Met with Roads Minister, Jesse Norman MP, this morning to discuss the need for Government funding to improve and upgrade the A5 in North Warwickshire.

This followed on from a meeting - had with Midland Connect last week, who are also supportive of the need for change.

Not good enough that eastbound traffic during peak times between Dordon & Atherstone has an average speed of just 20mph in mornings & 30 mph in the evenings on such a critical stretch of road.

Also raised several issues in Grendon raised by the local Parish Council as Highways England were present at the meeting as well as re-iterating concerns about Mancetter Island, which needs urgent attention.'
