More Car Charging Juice Needed Humphrey? Yes Minister.

Well I never. Haven't we said so for years? Ministers are catching on at last, bless 'em.

  • The reason I mentioned the Heads of the Valleys road is that whilst cities like Bristol are making life difficult for people to visit and work there the The European Union  are upgrading a 15km length of the A465 Heads of the Valleys Road which provides a principal road link between south west Wales and the UK Midlands and forms part of the Trans-European Road Network.


    This road should have bee built fifty years ago, but it is a huge project that it is claimed may cost a hundred million pouds a mile that may not have been possible back then.


    Without good road access the EU can see this area of the UK will not be able to thrive and flourish.


    There are many other examples of huge road building projects in England aimed at allowing the whole country thrive and flourish, the question is will cities like Bristol and Birmingham do so in the long term is access is restricted, also what vehicles will be using these roads?
