The UK Government is planning to impose a restriction on roadworks on major routes following pleas from ministers.

With the majority of the motorway network being resurfaced in the next 5 years as part of the £15bn 'road investment strategy', the Department of Transport and the Highways Agency are looking at limiting the length of any single section of roadworks to between 2 and 5 miles.
