RAC comments on move to put an end to mile-after-mile of motorway roadworks

RAC chief engineer David Bizley said: “The Government’s road investment strategy has promised motorists the biggest improvement to England’s major roads in a generation. However, it is vital that this upgrade is delivered in a way that does not cause unnecessary inconvenience. The sight of mile after mile of traffic cones and reduced speed limits, only for work to be taking place on a single small stretch of road, is a source of frustration for motorists. A move to complete major roadworks in phases, which would see motorists encounter shorter ‘bursts’ of temporary speed limits rather than a single one that runs for a long distance, will be seen as a common sense step by drivers.”
