No Widening M1 Campaign Public Meeting

No more roads! | 16.01.2006 10:11

No M1 Widenning!
Campaign Meeting Tuesday Jan 31st 2004
@ The Sumac Centre, 245 Gladstone St, Forest Fields, Nottingham (directions available via their website:  http://www.thesumac.org.uk )

Everyone is invited to a meeting called to set up a Nottingham No M1 Widening Campaign.

The government is planning a huge new roads building programme of about 200 schemes, including the widening of the M1 to four lanes from junctions 6a to 13 and junctions 21 to 42.

Road transport is also the single biggest contributor to the UK’s output of greenhouse gases. High levels of these gases are causing the climate to change at a speed never seen before in human history. Road building destroys and degrades habitats, species, and heritage. It divides and fragments communities. It contributes to health problems such as asthma. Road building does little for the poorest in society, who depend on public transport. Getting around, and having a secure economy, need not involve such destruction.

Local campaigns are being set up across the country to oppose the widenning of the M1. We are inviting individuals and groups from across Nottingham to form a Nottingham part of this campaign. We will be presenting information on what exactly the government is planning on doing, and ideas for opposing it.

Look forward to seeing you there! Please forward this email as widely as possible. This is urgent as the government will be starting its 'consultation' process this spring!
