On the 20th March the Chancellor delivered his Budget and scrapped the Beer Duty Escalator and also cut tax by 1p. But even with this cut we pay more tax on our beer than our European neighbours. The decision to scrap the escalator was down in no small part to the effort’s from CAMRA members with over 100,000 signatures, a debate in parliament and the December lobby of Parliament all contributing to the chancellor’s decision. There is exciting news on the brewery front in the Wakefield area with one definite new brewery launching, Hamelsworde based in Hemsworth. A list of the launch beers is in our brewery news on page 36. Also very close to starting is Malthouse of Horbury and James And Kirkman at CONTENTS the Robin Hood in Pontefract.

M1 Junction 39 to 42 Smart Motorway
Post Opening Project Evaluation M1 Junction 39 to Junction 42 Smart Motorway All Lane Running – One Year After August 2017 Notice Although this report was commissioned by Highways England, the findings and recommendations are those of the authors and do not necessarily represent the views of the Highways England. While Highways England has made every effort to ensure the information in this document is accurate, Highways England does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of that information; and it cannot accept liability for any loss or damages of any kind resulting from reliance on the information or guidance this document contains. Post Opening Project Evaluation M1 J39-J42 Smart Motorway All Lane Running – One Year After Study Foreword Highways England’s motorways are some of the safest in the world. Our road network carries a third of road traffic and we have seen demand grow by a quarter since 2000 with continued growth forecast. One reason for the introduction is smart motorways is because there are more vehicles on the road. By making use of the full width of the road, smart motorways add that extra capacity to carry more vehicles and ease congestion. They have evolved from Controlled Motorways (with variable speed limits) to Dynamic Hard Shoulder Running (opening the hard shoulder as a running lane to traffic at busy periods) to All Lane Running (permanently removing the hard shoulder and converting it into a running lane). Compared to a traditional motorway widening they deliver: • Increased capacity at significantly less cost than traditional motorway widening. • New technology and variable speed limits to improve traffic flow.
