The widening scheme for M11 Junctions 6 to 8 was not taken forward back in March 2008. Reasons for this were, firstly the scheme did not give good value for money as a widening scheme, secondly, in October 2007, the Secretary of State for Transport announced that future improvements in capacity of England's motorways would most likely take the form of Managed Motorways using the hard shoulder as a running lane when traffic flows demanded extra running space. Overhead gantries and emergency refuge areas would be used to control use of the hard shoulders and traffic speed, as well as providing safe stopping points in emergencies.
In March 2008, The Secretary of State for Transport announced that parallel investigations were to be carried out into improvement in capacity on the M11 between London, Stansted Airport and Cambridge, in particular, the M11 between Junction 6 and Junction 8, and the West Anglia Main Line rail corridor.
