Will it ever happen? Or just pie in the sky?
I just love that, let me go get my knife and fork and jump on my rock, I fancy a piece of pie! 
why not spend 30b on roads outside London, that don’t seam to get any budget! that desperately need it.
I’m all for it, stick the cyclists and buses down there though!
Reminds me of a Dr Who episode - “Gridlock”
“New New York in the far future, where they discover the remainder of humanity on the planet live in perpetual gridlock within the Motorway, an underground highway system. When Martha is kidnapped, the Doctor races to find her before she enters the dangerous “fast lane”.”
The Doctor chases after Martha’s kidnappers and arrives at the Motorway, a completely enclosed highway filled with thousands of hover vans stuck in gridlock. The fumes in the air begin to affect the Doctor and he seeks refuge in the van of Thomas Kincade Brannigan and his wife Valerie. The Doctor learns that the couple, along with all the other traffic on the road, have only travelled a short distance in several years.
Hopefully when its dug the place will disappear into it!

Praise Jeebus!
just hope they make it so that lorries carrying dangerous goods can go through it all!
as someone who very rarely gets to that neck of the woods these days , I would rather they spent some of the £30b on improving the links between the east and west of the country . the a66 and a69 are not the best major routes . however as they are in the north (even further north than Birmingham or even Manchester 
) I doubt it will ever happen . 
Well if they start now with all the BS protests,planning probs,they will have to suffer it should be finished by2060[with luck]and the cost will have escalated to £150 billion,sounds about right for the uk.Only a rough estimate.
