What recovery looks like in Nottinghamshire
Nottinghamshire has a wide spread of road environments. The southern half is dominated by the city, its ring road, and the M1 between J24 and J27. The northern half is rural, with the A1 acting as the spine through Newark, Tuxford and Markham Moor. We cover both, with units stationed to reach the busy southern half within minutes and the northern stretches within a longer but predictable response window.
The county is also a transit corridor. Drivers heading north on the M1 often break down between Trowell Services and Tibshelf, while A1 traffic going south breaks down between Blyth and Grantham. We attend both regularly. If you're not sure which side of a county boundary you're on, just call and read out a junction or postcode.
