That's three major contractors that have been pushed / walked away from major schemes in the last few months...

They know something we don't clearly; are the Treasury about to screw the industry over again?

Not true at all.
This may be so, but it's certainly how the article reads.

Nothing's impossible. Build the Western Orbital. It doesn't need to be a super-duper fully-free-flow D6M.
The Western Strategic Route has been abandoned by Midlands Connect as well! It is informally extinct! It is also getting a lot of hate from silly Sabre users who've never been to the County of West Midlands.

One of them is A38 Derby Junctions, in it?
