Our partners, working collaboratively, have identified a series of transport investment priorities, designed to support and stimulate economic and housing growth and improve access to Stansted. These are set out below:
- Improved capacity at the M11 Junction 8
- Secure major improvements and ultimately provision of four rail lines on the West Anglia Main Line (WAML) to Broxbourne, improving rail connectivity to London especially Stratford
- Protect the alignment of a second rail tunnel under the runway.
- M11 improvements between J8 and J9:
- Short term – daytime HGV no overtaking ban
- Longer term – improve access from the Cambridge area
- Deliver A14 major improvement scheme
- Improvements to the A120 including
- Access from the east and capacity improvements (Braintree to Colchester (A12))
- Little Hadham Bypass
