A business plan for a long-awaited bypass in Shrewsbury has been delayed, but is expected to be published before Christmas, Shropshire Council has said.The business plan for the scheme, which was first proposed in the 1980s, had been expected to be published on Thursday, but the local authority said it needed more time.
Shropshire Council said the new road, completing the ring road around the north west of the town, would reduce congestion and pollution in the town centre, but has also faced vocal opposition from environmental groups. Critics include the Environment Agency, which has had concerns about water safety due to the presence of a borehole along the route.The council has said it expects the work to be fully funded by the government, but that has not yet been confirmed.
A business case sets out the financial costs and benefits of a project and the council said it had needed extra time to work on meeting planning conditions.Dan Morris, the councillor responsible for transport said it was a "very complex scheme". Former Transport Minister Guy Opperman, part of the previous government, said in February that funding would not be awarded until the full business case for the scheme had been submitted.Council's concerns over suggested tunnel chargesContractor steps in to build long-awaited £56m bypass
