Shrewsbury's MP says a political opponent is "misleading" residents with claims over the funding for the town's North West Relief Road.The controversial project has been mired in delays, and has still not gone before a planning committee for a decision, despite the Government awarding more than £50 million towards the cost of the road four years ago.
Referencing the delays to the project, Mr Kawczynski had said:"I’m very proud to have secured £56 million and now four years on we are still not at the stage where the road has planning permission. We can’t run a society like that.“I will be taking lessons from this whole process and will challenge it in a parliamentary debate. It is not fit for purpose. We have to take power away from the handful of people that use the environment to cause delay.
"She is showing a lack of understanding of how this project is being financed by the Department for Transport – with the money ring-fenced for this project.
