A reminder to NCFC fans who use the A11

[sterei 0]

Norfolk County Council''s campaign to get the Government to speed up the dualling of the final single-carriageway section of the A11 (Fiveways Barton Mills to Thetford) is continuing, with around 9,500 people having already provided their signature to either our online petition, or to hard copies in libraries and EDP offices, since we launched the campaign around three weeks ago.

The County Council wants the Government to begin work by 2010, rather than the current planned start date of 2012/13.

Many pink ''un readers and website users have given their support thus far, but this is a message for those who may also want to do so, and who may not be aware that this is currently going on. 

Dualling the A11 will make the road safer to use and help eliminate the reputation among businesses of Norfolk being a remote place in which to do business.  It will also reduce the time spent by Norwich City fans travelling to away games as well as aiding ''exiled'' supporters travelling here who are not lucky enough to live in our county.

If you would like to also support the campaign, you can do so by October 8, by visiting the following link.  Whilst you are welcome to fill out as much information as you like, all we need is your firstname and lastname, and the verification code which is stated on the page.
