What difference will the new road make to current traffic on local roads?
By providing another link to the motorway system, most local traffic will have more options with a consequent reduction in traffic at local pinch points. Most HGV traffic will be routed along the new link road. It is intended that The DEW Project will use the new link road once constructed and this will alleviate heavy traffic on local roads. The new road will also help to improve connectivity for the local community and at the same time reduce the current HGV traffic on local roads.
