Time running out to have your say on Western Link Road

0

THE final public exhibitions giving details of the proposed Western Link Road options aimed at relieving traffic congestion in Warrington are on show this week – and there is also still time to give your feedback online.

Warrington Borough Council is exploring options for a business case for a new link road to cut congestion and ease traffic flow.

Six possible route options for the road have been identified and the Council is seeking opinions on these options before submitting a bid for funding to the Department for Transport (DfT).

Cllr Hans Mundry, executive board member for highways and transportation, said: “I would encourage people across the borough to participate in the public consultation to share their views on the proposals.

“This is a very big project and, even if you don’t live near the proposed site, your views on the scheme will be welcomed.”

The consultation runs until Friday 28 July.

The remaining public exhibitions are taking place on:

Tuesday 18 July, 4.30pm – 8.30pm, Lymm Village Hall
Wednesday 19 July, 10am – 5pm, Golden Square Shopping Centre
Wednesday 19 July, 6pm – 8pm, Shannon Bradshaw Community Centre, Penketh
Thursday 20 July, 3pm – 8pm, Kings Community Centre
Friday 21 July, 10am – 5pm, Sainsbury’s Chapelford

People can give their views online at warrington.gov.uk/westernlink. Consultation documents will be available for people to take away from libraries.
