Finally! Something's being done about the near-permanent gridlock on the Birmingham Road.

Sounds great, but I bet the traffic problems were never mentioned in the negotiations.

Wonderful! A potential permanent traffic jam all the way from Trinity Mead to the A46!

You'd be lucky if you can get up to 30mph, let alone 50mph: http://stratfordobserver.co.uk/news/plans-reduce-birmingham-road-speed-limit/

Another round of talking, from which nothing will be done: http://stratfordobserver.co.uk/news/townspeople-invited-consultation-tackling-birmingham-road-congestion/

Although, I did originally think that Nadhim Zahawi just ran the previous meetings as part of his pre-election campaign.

Well, people are still talking about it. Maybe something will get done now Stratford's tourist industry has given its blessing: http://stratfordobserver.co.uk/news/stratford-avon-gateway-plans-progressing-well/
