Opposition parties have united in last-minute calls for Shropshire Council to abandon its plans for the North West Relief Road.
It means that after nearly two years of delays, the plan is finally set to be considered by councillors on October 31.
"However, if true, the council should be looking again at the priorities for the whole county and considering whether four miles of additional ring road around Shrewsbury is the best use of public money.Despite the call for the funding to be used elsewhere, government money previously confirmed for the North West Relief Road, totalling around £54m, can only be used for that specific project, although Shropshire Council could use its own funding on other schemes.
"Firstly, can any infrastructure announcement be trusted from this Government in the light of HS2? And secondly, has the DfT fully costed the road and the lifetime commitment to mitigating the water bore hole contamination? Green Party Councillor Julian Dean said carbon emissions from the project would be"unacceptable", and warned the construction would cause"irreparable environmental damage".
