An online tool has been launched by National Highways, to gather views on the issues and opportunities for major A-roads including the A30 to Penzance

National Highways is responsible for England’s motorways and major roads, including the section of the A30 which runs through the Ludgvan parish, between St Erth Roundabout and Newtown Roundabout.

Their aim is to ensure the road network is free-flowing, safe and serviceable. They also want to support economic growth with a modern and reliable road network that reduces delays, creates jobs, helps businesses and opens up new areas for development.

National Highways has launched the online feedback tool for people travelling on, and living near, England’s major roads. The tool is part of their engagement process for Route Strategies, and will inform the government’s decisions on future road investment.

Your chance to have your say

This is your chance to raise your views and concerns about the A30 including where you regularly experience congestion or safety concerns, or where you see opportunities for better facilities.

The information you give will be considered alongside National Highways’ other evidence and engagement to build a picture on future investment opportunities. 

How to have your say:

FILL IN THE SURVEY ON THE ONLINE TOOL
