LUTON AIRPORT solo passengers should not get too alarmed with reports that they will not be allowed into the fast lane of the M1, which passes close by. If the scheme gets under way, and it is subject to approval of M1 widening plans, it will not happen until 2008. A dedicated multi-passenger (two or more) lane would be created between Junctions 7 (St Albans/Dunstable South) and J10 (Milton Keynes) to be patrolled by the police. Unaccompanied drivers will be fined at rates yet to be set. If the project is a success it would be extended. Such schemes do work in the USA.
