@JugglingWithEggs one bit I don't understand in the reports is the claim that legal challenge increased the cost by millions. Does that mean the #A47 impact assessments were so crap it took millions of pounds of work to make them robust enough to survive court? Which would mean that even if Boswell's arguments were without merit, he was justified in asking.

County Council KILLS OFF its A47 Long Shoot cycle scheme

Back in December 2023, Warwickshire County Council stated that it had paused development of a mostly separated cycle scheme to run alongside the A47 from its junction with the A5 towards Nuneaton town centre. Now, the Council's Forward Plan published in October 2024 shows the decision on the scheme

Now, the Council’s Forward Plan published in October 2024 shows the decision on the scheme as “Abandoned” and it has been suggested that the Long Shoot portion of the planned route may not be going ahead.

#LeJourDapres
- Rive de Gier & Givors marqués
- autoroute #A47 toujours inondée
- ligne ferrée fermée pour plusieurs jours
- ludothèque & autres services publics mal en point
- écoles fermées

Que fait le gouvernement ? Il coupe le #FondsVert & les financements des collectivités.

Je n'oublie pas Annonay, et les autres coins fortement touchés par les intempéries. Je me limite juste à évoquer le coin où je vis et les villes dont j'utilise au quotidien les services publics, commerce, moyens de transports.

Très triste de les voir dans cet état. Et en colère.

ICYMI - Was it right for #WarwickshireCountyCouncil to cite "the level of community support" as one of its reasons for pausing development on the separated cycleway alongside the busy A47?

Warwickshire County Council has stated that it is pausing development of its often-delayed Long Shoot Cycle Scheme and its Hinckley Road scheme in Nuneaton. The reasoning for this decision has been attributed both to levels of community support and a funding shortfall.

#Fenland #PlanningApplication #FYR220844O #Wisbech off Stow Road. Cambridgeshire CoCo still asking good questions. #KLWNBUG should make similar objections. This could be a useful new route to/from the Smeeth but this development will also turn the #A47 Broadend Road crossroads into a roundabout which could be good or bad #space4cycling
