EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
Highways England Company Limited are authorised to construct two new link roads of the A556 Trunk Road as described in the above Schedule, running through the centre of the A556 Trunk Road roundabout at M6 Junction 19, and crossing over the M6 Motorway on a new bridge. This Order designates the new link roads as trunk roads from the date this Order comes into force and Highways England Company Limited as the highways authority for the new link roads from that date.
The new link roads will provide a more direct route through the roundabout for traffic travelling from the M6 Motorway southbound to the A556 Principal Road southbound, and the M6 Motorway northbound to the A556 Trunk Road northbound, respectively, removing the need for such directional traffic to use the circulatory carriageway of the A556 Trunk Road roundabout.
These additional link roads, together with the light control of traffic movement at the A556 Trunk Road roundabout entry and exit points, will provide greater capacity and free flow of traffic movement at the M6 Junction 19/A556 Trunk Road roundabout junction.
