Junction 19 of the M1, where the A14 European Trunk Route joins the M6 and M1, also known as the Catthorpe Interchange, is 10 years beyond capacity. Its inadequate construction causes countless hours of delays to motorists, results in misery to local communities and represents a serious safety hazard.

 

Despite this, a government review of highways projects has put the redesign plans on indefinite hold.

 

If you are:

 A commuter

A haulier

A HGV driver

A warehouse/distribution operator

A resident of Rugby, Lutterworth or Market Harborough

A local villager

Anyone else affected by this dog’s breakfast of a junction,

then please sign the petition to Prime Minister Brown to demonstrate the level of concern and breadth of impact.

This website has been funded by the generous donations of the people of Welford who are particularly badly affected by the junction. The creators of this site have no desire to portray a particular political or partisan stance but wish all disadvantaged parties to contribute to efforts to get the junction put right as soon as possible. This site will be updated periodically as time allows and events dictate.
