Boost for A1 Campaign

Good news for the long running campaign to dual the A1 as the CBI has today highlighted the importance of transport links.

The dualing of the A1 would help us make sure its clear that Northumberland is open for business, and help avoid the diversion of investment to the South and even North West due to better transport links.

"Transport infrastructure, in particular, should be made a priority, the CBI says, because it offers high returns and will play a crucial role in boosting domestic and international trade."
