Richard has received a reply to his letter to the Roads Minister in August regarding the catastrophic traffic management chaos on the A421 over the course of the weekend of July 5th and 6th.
The letter can be read here. Richard's letter to the Transport Secretary can be read here.
Richard Fuller MP said:
I broadly agree with the Roads Minister that National Highways have learned a great deal from the failures of that weekend and also that subsequent road closures have not resulted in any significant levels of disruption.
I reiterate that I feel this project has generally been well managed with a strong focus on communication and engagement with the public. Although an extremely large failure, and unpleasant experience for all those caught in the mayhem, hopefully we will look back at that event as a 'blip' in an otherwise successful venture.
