yours report Last month in the low Thames Crossing and Article by George Monbiot (Overlapped infrastructure projects can damage life and imperial democracy. Why is Britain addicted to them ?, 24 June) Raise the question of the government’s investment reasoning. Many good money goes HS2Completion of the horizon, and nearly another £ 590m in the lower Thames Crossing, which is believed to relieve the Dartford Crossing in Dartford Crossing. As most studies are shown, a lot of capacity on the road is not resolved but The traffic jumps are differentan observation made in 1963 Buchanan report.
In fact, over half of the Dartford Crossing traffic is local between South Essex and North Cent. The most recent payment of low Thames Crossing will pay for Kenex Trame Project Dartford, Northfelet, Tilfleet, Offer, and Purfleet Times. In fact, the Thames Tram Tunnel is designed to allow emergency vehicles to use it and save time to reach local hospitals, especially at times.
It shows that research Auto commuters use trams when availableSave time and trouble finding parking: 25% of tram passengers moved from vehicle use, the UK average. In the US, number are 40%. Kenex decreases Dartford Crossing Traffic to about 20% free capacity for the shipment that cannot pass the railroad. This claim is the same for lower Thames Crossing, in less than 5% of the cost. Another £ 13.5bn goes a long way to repair hospitals and schools.

The future funds of large infrastructure projects may be important for growth. But the people of the North Kent and Essex who live near the current Dartford Crossing are more happy when the small projects of A226 in Dartford, which ended two years later, can be carried out soon.
In addition, the fund funds in the SearchSend-Tilbury Passenger Ferry must expire and the service restored.
These small infrastructure projects can improve the lives of many working people living in the area and make them feel more caused by the construction of new crossings.

Government’s commitment to £ 725bn over 10 years in UK infrastructure strategy welcomed, because George Monbot is referring to infrastructure and imperial demrasy projects.
In fact, the biggest risk of democracy infrastructure is the question of changing the houses of Parliament. In approximate expenses approximately £ 22bn and increases, this government is expected to make final decisions in the next year or two, therefore a budget allocation should have budget plans.
It is viewed by a lens it is important work to restore and preserve one of our best buildings, which serves as a worldly recognized symbol of British democracy. Through others it is a crushing, sprinkle with a group of democracy and economy and continue as a project of lack of parliament.
