Traffic Management
Background
Some 25,000 to 30,000 vehicles travel along the A421 every day and approximately 120,000 pass through the M1 at Junction 13. To ensure the safety of the travelling public and our workforce it is necessary to put in place a traffic management regime.
Traffic management regimes are designed through the Traffic Management Forum in which all relevant project and third party stakeholders are represented. This includes the Police and other emergency services. Traffic management regimes are considerately designed with firm emphasis being placed on efforts to minimise any effect on journey time through the works, as well as providing a more efficient and safe environment for the travelling public and project delivery personnel.
Vehicle Recovery
A full vehicle recovery service will be provided within the limits of the M1 roadworks 24 hours per day 365 days per year.
