A14: Speed Limits
(asked on 19th May 2016) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he made of the (a) time and (b) financial cost to motorists and road hauliers of the 40mph limit on the A14 for recent road improvement works.
This question was answered on 27th May 2016
The work on the A14 involved replacing central reserve safety barriers, necessitating a 40mph speed limit restriction for safety reasons whilst the barrier remained incomplete.
As this was essential safety work Highways England did not carry out an assessment of the delay costs.
