The A1 Trunk Road
THE CHARTERED INSTITUTION OF HIGHWAYS & TRANSPORTATION The A1 Trunk Road The A1 is the UK's longest numbered road, dating back to the 1920’s, when it reﬂected the importance of the link between London and Edinburgh. In 1952, the Great North Road passed through the region’s towns and city centres – local and through trafﬁc sharing the same space with pedestrians in Darlington, Durham, Gateshead and Northumberland Street in Newcastle. Further north, it was forced through pinch-points such as the ancient Bondgate Tower in Alnwick. Sixty years later, the A1 has been replaced by the A1(M) motorway in County Durham, while Tyne & Wear and Northumberland has seen gradual improvements (and diversions) to the route. It remains the primary road link north and south of the region, despite its mix of improved and unimproved sections. 1 A1(M) in the North East The principle of a new A1 trunk route through County Durham was first established in the 1930’s with the building of bypasses for Birtley and Chester-le-Street, along with plans for a Darlington bypass. That proposal didn’t come to fruition until 1956 when the bypass was included in the national network of new Motorways by the Ministry of Transport. Construction commenced in 1961 and included 10.5 miles of motorway between Darlington and Barton, a two mile spur road into the town, 9.5 miles of load road reconstruction and 34 bridges. It was opened in May 1965 at a cost of £6.5m. Design work on a further 22 mile stretch of the ‘Durham Motorway’, between Darlington and Chester-le-Street, started in 1958 with construction broken down into four sections, each costing between £3m and £4m.

No waste, nuisances or accidents are likely that would extend beyond the border of the UK. No novel technologies are proposed that have potential for transboundary impacts. Geographical area It is not anticipated that any impacts are likely to extend beyond the jurisdiction of the UK, with the exception of the potential release of greenhouse gas emissions (as discussed in Chapter 15 of this Scoping Report). Location of the development The Scheme is located in Northumberland, North East England, crossing predominantly rural existing land uses.
