A66 Northern Trans-Pennine Project Update Winter 2020 A66 Northern Trans-Pennine project update Winter 2020 Scan for more information Improving safety, journey times, reliability Foreword and resilience on the A66 between the junctions of the M6 and the A1(M) I am a proud Yorkshireman and, as a highways professional, I am passionate about harnessing good road design to create opportunities for all users of our network. For me, this project isn’t about pouring concrete, it’s about people and the positive difference that we can make to their lives and those of future generations. That’s why, central to the project, is the need to create a road that is safe, reliable and efficient for everyone – whether you are a cyclist, a driver, a passenger, pedestrian or live near the A66. I know that the A66 plays an essential role for journeys across the north of England. It provides the most direct connection between the eastern side of England and the central belt of Scotland. It connects cities like Leeds, Sheffield and Norwich to Glasgow and Edinburgh. Lorries and freight transport rely on the A66, providing access to industrial estates, farms and quarries along the route and across the country. It is important for ports such as Stranraer, Teesport, Hull and Felixstowe. Over 28,000 journeys are made using the A66 every day, a quarter of which are lorries. Working with the Government, stakeholders and communities, we plan to invest around £1billion in the A66, dualling the remaining sections of the route between M6 junction 40 at Penrith and the A1(M) at Scotch Corner. Our work will make journeys on the A66 more reliable, improving access to tourist destinations such as the Lake District, the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and North Yorkshire. We’ll also help provide better links to Cumbria, Tees Valley and Tyne and Wear, improving access to jobs and reducing congestion. Our work will unlock economic growth and reduce delays. In May this year, we announced the preferred route for the upgrade of the A66 and we are currently carrying out environmental and ground investigation surveys in the area to help with our design. We are committed to building on the positive relationships we have with communities that live along the route. We will be engaging and consulting with you as we develop our plans to unlock new educational, health, work and social horizons for people that live alongside the route or rely on it. By acting today to address the problems affecting the A66, we can be more confident of seizing opportunities tomorrow to benefit road users, taxpayers and the country as a whole. At Highways England we are committed to working with communities when developing our projects and we will be consulting with you further in 2021 before submitting our planning documents. As we engage with our customers and communities about the project in the coming months, we will make sure that all the relevant measures and guidelines for Covid-19 are followed to protect you and our team members. I hope you and your loved ones keep safe and well during these challenging times.

The route carries high levels of freight, with 25% But the A66 isn’t up to modern standards. Drivers of the traffic being heavy goods vehicles (HGVs), face congestion, delays at key junctions and more than twice the national average for a road of substandard access to jobs and leisure locations. this nature. That is why we are investigating ways to improve journeys on the A66 by raising the whole route to While the A66 plays a crucial role in the life dual carriageway standard. of nearby communities, it is also essential for journeys across the UK.

Today, his claim doesn't strike us as so miraculously impossible, now that an airliner can bring the Coronavirus to us from the other side of the world in a matter of hours. It's clear that the distance of oceans and mountain ranges cannot separate us from our neighbours. For good or ill we have to share this tiny planet. And what affects my distant neighbour will, sooner or later, affect me. But, while I have to recognise the reality of my foreign neighbour, I have to begin by being a good neighbour to the man next door; for the fabric of my life grows from my relationship with him just because he's there, God-given, with all his differences from me.
