My big problem with the M25, especially between say the M4 and the A1, is the interminable number of gantries, most with speed cameras.

Busy motorways will be a thing of the past, so governments are taking a long term view.
Think this is far fetched well already my Amazon echo can have an alarm set by voice command.

Originally posted by Paddy View PostThe funding was not for MPs to spend on a jolly. In order to receive the funding, the government had to actually build a motorway, something which seems a rather difficult and longwinded task with compulsory purchase of land etc. The other part was political, especially with the Tory Government; they were embarrassed to admit that the UK were being funded to upgrade the UK's 3rd world road infrastructure.

Originally posted by shaunbhoy View PostSo in other words, we should have stumped up the cash to build it ourselves then rely on a "EU Pledge" to get our capital outlay back?
Mmm...can't see any flaws in THAT logic. I mean the EU are "all over" honouring pledges. Much like their annual "pledge" to publish audited and properly costed accounts every year.
