Petition Action

Get The Department for Transport to improve & repair roads around Stafford

Petition Details

Every time the M6 is closed at either junction 11, 12, 13 or 14 Stafford and the surrounding roads become grid locked. This is causing addition erosion of existing roads which are not being repaired, causing damage to residents vehicles & increasing the risk of injury to road users

Additional Information

The M6 is being closed more and more at least twice a month at present. Roads within Stafford are constantly being closed for sewer and other repairs to be carried out. However, there doesn't appear to be any co-ordination of this work. Large housing projects will only increase the pressure on local roads which are not capable of carrying the existing traffic.
