Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Five new motorways and 12 major trunk road improvements must be built in the Midlands over the next five years if costly growing congestion and accident rates are to be defeated, claims the British Road Federation in a report published on Wednesday. Total cost of construction would be £227m. The proposed motorways are: Derby and Nottingham area to Stoke-on-Trent (Ml to M6); Shrewsbury to Brownhills; Birmingham to Nottingham (two sections—Kegworth to Coleshill and Coleshill to Bromsgrove); and Ross Spur junction (M5) to Leicester (M1).
