DETAILS have yet to be revealed of how an upgraded M1 with a “dynamic” hard shoulder will negotiate the Tinsley Viaduct.
Transport Secretary Philip Hammond announced more than £600 million for public transport and road projects.
Among them is a plan to use the hard shoulder as a fourth lane between Thurcroft and Chapeltown on the M1.
