North and East Melton Mowbray Distributor Road scheme

The North & East Melton Mowbray Distributor Road (NEMMDR) is a major road scheme in Leicestershire aimed at reducing congestion in the town centre, as well as supporting growth in local employment and enabling local housing delivery.  

The £115m scheme is funded by the UK Government, Leicestershire County Council, the Leicester & Leicestershire Local Enterprise Partnership and developer contributions, and will deliver a 7.1km road with walking and cycling facilities.  Works on the scheme started early in 2023 and are ongoing until later 2025.
