It will serve the huge new National Rehabilitation Centre
The safety of motorists and pedestrians has been questioned for a proposed new road in Nottinghamshire. A new access route will serve a huge medical facility which is being built near the village of Stanford-on-Soar.
Planning documents have revealed a new access road will have to be built to serve the facility. This will require a new junction off the busy Melton Road. While there are yet to be any objections a parish council has questioned what the developer will be doing to ensure road safety. Bradmore and Stanford Parish Council clerk Rebecca Hague said: "Stanford-on-Soar Parish Council has no objections to this application but would ask that road safety measures are reviewed and that given the close proximity to multiple junctions, adequate measures are put in place to slow the traffic flow through the area.
