Unable to execute Spray Examples | Maven dependency error

Question

I am just trying to have hands on Spray library however am not able to execute its examples due to maven dependency.

As provided in docs I have defined Spray repository as follows:

<repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>sprayrepo</id>
            <name>spray repo</name>
            <url>http://repo.spray.io/</url>
            <layout>default</layout>
        </repository>
</repositories>

Then I have defined its dependency as follows:

  <dependency>
            <groupId>io.spray</groupId>
            <artifactId>spray-http</artifactId>
            <version>1.1-M7</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.spray</groupId>
            <artifactId>spray-httpx</artifactId>
            <version>1.1-M7</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.spray</groupId>
            <artifactId>spray-util</artifactId>
            <version>1.1-M7</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.chuusai</groupId>
            <artifactId>shapeless_2.9.2</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.0</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>  

However when I try to execute to maven install, I face following error:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project spray-test1: Could not resolve dependencies for project org.spray:spray-test1:jar:1.0-SNAPSHOT: Failed to collect dependencies for [io.spray:spray-http:jar:1.1-M7 (compile), io.spray:spray-httpx:jar:1.1-M7 (compile), io.spray:spray-util:jar:1.1-M7 (compile), com.chuusai:shapeless_2.9.2:jar:1.2.0 (compile)]: Failed to read artifact descriptor for io.spray:spray-http:jar:1.1-M7: Could not transfer artifact io.spray:spray-http:pom:1.1-M7 from/to sprayrepo (http://repo.spray.io/): connection timed out to http://repo.spray.io/io/spray/spray-http/1.1-M7/spray-http-1.1-M7.pom -> [Help 1] [ERROR]

Any Pointers or suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Thanks
