What the petition asks
Tunnel the A406 at New Southgate area to remove bottle neck caused by traffic lights and allow traffic to be free flowing.
Every hour of every day the section of the A406 by New Southgate is a traffic Jam. There is a primary school right there where the children breathe in the fumes all day. Tunneling and opening up the surface area could encourage property growth, commerce & more green spaces.
Why it was rejected
It was about a matter for a local council or devolved government, not the UK Government or Parliament.
