Nationalise the M6 Toll road

Closed 72 signatures

What the petition asks

The M6 toll road is currently underused and is a resource that could be used more effectively under national ownership, this would help save time and money not only to businesses but to local and national economies and also help with air pollution experienced on the M6 which has heavy congestion.
Nationalising the M6 Toll would have numerous benefits from alleviating congestion on the M6 and surrounding roads to helping businesses and local economies of towns that are situated alongside the toll road such as Cannock which is currently having the Mill Green designer outlet village built.
