Frequently Asked Questions

How will you make sure more traffic and congestion doesn’t build up elsewhere?

To ensure traffic flows along other roads are not made worse, extensive traffic modelling of proposed improvements was undertaken. This has allowed us to make sure our improvements do not just improve traffic flows along the A630 with the knock on effect of causing problems elsewhere.

How will you make sure all road users are considered?

Public consultation was carried out to make sure we considered the views of all members of the public, whether you travel along the corridor by foot, bike, bus or by car because we aim to improve the corridor for everyone who uses the route or lives in the local area. Although public consultation is now closed and the scheme is under construction, if you have any further queries or comments you can email smartroutes@sypte.co.uk or telephone 0114 221 1452.

How will you make sure there isn’t too much disruption while the work is being carried out?

We are organising all work programmes to make sure the improvements are phased appropriately, and coordinated with other improvements taking place in the area, to minimise disruption for all road users along the corridor.
