50 new jobs set to be created at National Highways compound

- Sentinel Reporter

FIFTY jobs are to be created under plans to provide a quicker response to gritting parts of the A50 during freezing weather.

A National Highways compound has been approved as part of plans to deliver quicker responses to issues on both the A50 and A38.

It is set to be built off the Etwall Road, adjacent to the Willington service station and the A38/A50 Toyota Roundabout on the Staffordshire and Derbyshire border.

Documents provided by National Highways detail that its new operational compound is intended to provide easy access for quick responses to issues on the nearby A50, including with 'winter road treatments' such as gritting.

The site would include offices, a garage, a large salt container, vehicle wash and fuel storage operating 24/7.
