PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
DEFERRAL OF IMPROVEMENTS TO THE A453 (24 May 2010)

That this House notes with concern the Government's decision not to proceed with much needed improvements to the A453 road between the M1 and the City of Nottingham; believes that the resultant congestion and traffic delays are a restraint on the economic prospects, safety and convenience of millions of people across Nottinghamshire; calls on the Department for Transport urgently to re-consider the need for this crucial transport investment; and urges Ministers to consider the potentially damaging ramifications for the linked tram public transport improvements if key elements of the A453 upgrade plans do not proceed.
