Smiffy49 590 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 We have seen more talk about a possible new Trent crossing in the news recently. If you were part of the decision making process and had influence on this matter where would you put it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnno 45 Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 I would put it between Gosport and Portsmouth save on the ferries and a 20 mile drive......lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bubblewrap 3,815 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Somewhere near the National Water Sports Centre.to connect with the A52 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
letsavagoo 963 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Between Kelham bridge Newark and Gunthorpe bridge there is no other crossing and Kelham is often snarled up. I would put one there although there really isn't a suitable place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bubblewrap 3,815 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 But there is nothing between Lady bay & Gunthorpe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
letsavagoo 963 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 That's true bubblewrap but the question was where would you put one. I often have to go over Kelham Bridge and it's a devil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
benjamin1945 16,158 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Beeston,.......lets really ruin the place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,464 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Even further than Beeston; everybody so far has named somewhere to the east; but what about the other direction? From Clifton Bridge, the next one along is at Sawley which is a big gap. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DavidA 153 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 It's got to be Gamston roundabout to Colwick for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
notty ash 370 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Regarding Kelham, I am constantly surprised that they don't just put a proper link road in from Kelham village direct to the A1 and the A616 near Muskham. That would take most traffic off Kelham Bridge altogether. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Be quite handy for folks from carlton, and Netherfield area heading for Newark and beyond. loppylugs, there's already a bridge virtually next to Shelford, at Gunthorpe.

loppylugs 8,429 Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 True but you've got to go via Burton Joyce and Lowdham. Probably ruin Shelford anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
