There is no money until 2016!
26-02-09 :: 4NW have confirmed that bypass funding

out what's going on... |

24-01-09 :: A new year, and a new opportunity. The
regional funding allocation process is underway. This is when
each region decides which transport projects should be allocated
money from the budget. This year the North West region is 35%
over budget, thanks to the ever-increasing costs of road schemes

for the scheme and divert the money to environmentally sustainable
alternative, like the mersey tramway, and other public transport
schemes. More.... |
