| Response to Tameside's
LITS 'Consultation'
22-02-10 :: Over the last couple of weeks, Tameside
have been travelling around the local area asking for public opinion
on the Longdendale Integrated Transport Strategy. The consultation
is open until May 14th. Our initial response is here.
We have until May 14th to respond (nicely timed until after the
election) and will be publishing our full response shortly. |

| Another day,
another bypass proposal
19-10-09 :: Well, we didn't expect Tameside to let
this one go, but recent press articles suggest they're working
to a tight deadline. We want to reassure our supporters that we
are continuing to oppose the road proposals and will be publishing
information about Tameside's plans and how we will be opposing
them as the information becomes available... so watch this space.
For an update on what we think about Tameside's latest announcement
about the Mottram Showground, check out our latest
press release. |

| The inquiry is over,
at last.
23-07-09 :: Finally, the Orders have been withdrawn
by both the Highways Agency (for the A628) and Tameside (for the
Spur) and the inquiry is officially over. This is in part good
news, but not a victory, as the latest information coming in is
that Tameside are keen to press ahead with the Mottram (only)
bypass under the guise of the "Longdendale Integrated Transport
Strategy", which pays lip service to non-road alternatives
but is really cover for their real (and only) plan, which is to
build a road. The inquiry
website closes on August 6th. The HA update here.
We will be issuing our own release shortly. For comment, please
call 0845 226 3392. |

| Highways Agency pull
out of the inquiry!!
24-03-09 :: More good news! Today the Highways Agency
announced they're pulling out of the public inquiry. You can read
their press release here
and see our response here.
We're not sure exactly what will happen next, so watch this space... |
