I object to the proposed scheme at Simister Island Interchange. It is one of the busiest motorway junctions in the north-west, and is already within Noise Important Areas (NIA) and Air Quality Management Areas (AQMA). Rather than increasing capacity, National Highways should be seeking to reduce demand. Instead of dealing with the severe air and noise pollution already faced by local people, this scheme would make things worse for many local residents. Please, invest in incentivising traffic reduction instead. It would improve the health and well-being of many.
