Time is running out to have your say in Whittlesey’s relief road consultation
Local people have less than a week left to take part in the Whittlesey Relief Road consultation, which closes on Friday, November 22.
The consultation is seeking views on proposed options for the Whittlesey Relief Road Project, which aims to address the town's traffic issues and boost future growth and connectivity in the area.
Feedback on the options will be used to inform the final option designs for inclusion in a Strategic Outline Business Case (SOBC), which will be completed in early 2025.
The SOBC is a crucial piece of work that will examine a range of transport solutions, assess whether the relief road is the best option to push forward - and be used to help secure the necessary government funding to make it happen.
Consultants Mott McDonald are working on the SOBC with officers from Fenland District Council, Cambridgeshire County Council, the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority, the Environment Agency, and various transport providers.
