Scheme Outline

Construction of a new underpass linking the A13 dual carriageway from London to the A130, allowing traffic to flow more easily between the A13, A127 and A130 dual carriageways avoiding the current magic roundabout at Sadlers Farm.

A short new link will connect the A13 directly to Canvey Island.
