We have Solicitors, barrister, and consultants appointed for the public inquiry due to be held this winter for the alternative route that provides greater transport benefits, is £100m cheaper and doesn’t trash our countryside! For more information visit bw4b.org
GCP pauses southeast busway to secure yet more funding when there’s a £100m cheaper alternative, which saves our countryside. Come to our public meeting at 7:30pm on Mon 9 October at Stapleford Pavilion CB22 5BQ for an update from James Littlewood Cambridge Past Present & Future
The GCP are "marking their own homework", a clear conflict of interest on their Government audit when spending £500m of public money. See below the article in last week's Cambridge Independent. Cambridge+Independent.pdf (squarespace.com)
On Tues the Co. Council/GCP voted to destroy 100yr old Coton Orchard with a road that'll damage landscape, views & habitats, costing £M's more than an on-road option. Now they plan the same across Sawston, Gt Shelford, Stapleford & Babraham. See bw4b.org & say NO.
Latest GCP consultation brochure on relocating Stapleford CSET busway stop. GCP flags one option as cheaper & less distance to walk to - we're talking 10m!! No mention of the 2 areas of uneconomic farmland it creates that developers have already earmarked for housing. #dishonest
Snap poll: should there be a crock of gold or a busway at the end of tonight's @MagogDown double rainbow?
Forget central party loyalties & VOTE LOCAL in S Cambs elections. Look for candidates with track records actively opposing CSET & C2C. This is ur chance to save £Ms & greenbelt: quicker, cheaper & environmentally friendly alternatives exist to @GreaterCambs greenbelt busways.
May 5th could be ur last chance to improve public transport in S Cambs without damaging precious greenbelt. Quicker, cheaper & less damaging alternatives along current routes exist. If candidates haven't publicly opposed CSET/C2C & backed this up with action, don't vote for them.
And don't forget these greenbelt beauties around Stapleford and Gt Shelford - @GreaterCambs and @SCLibDems think they're just ripe for a bus road right through them at the foothills of Magog Down... Madness, when there's a cheaper option available along the A1307.
