M4 Link Road Needed to Cut pollution
Local prospective Conservative MP and Ring Road user Chris Skidmore has launched a campaign to have an M4 Link Road built to ease congestion on the Ring Road.
Currently the Ring Road has major tailbacks due to the amount of traffic heading towards the M4. Quite a few of these cars are heading towards Swindon or London and have to double back on themselves after joining the motorway.
Chris said:
'An M4 link road to the Avon Ring Road was planned but the government axed it. By building the M4 Link Road there would be reduced congestion which would reduce pollution. With all the extra houses that have already planned for Emersons Green, now more than ever we need this vital piece of infrastrucure."
