This is very unattractive, because like most people, I feel I pay my taxes for things like major roads, so I would prefer not to pay again through the council tax.
But we know that if there isnt a local contribution, then the A14 will not be widened, because the government has said that any such future road schemes will require an element of funding from local councils.
The thing that is holding up the building of Northstowe new town north of Cambridge is the poor infrastructure. The developers won't build the houses without a better road. And if Northstowe isnt built, then the argument for lots of development in and around our villages all comes back again, and the developers dust off the file called Hanley Grange - the 10,000 houses around Hinxton, oppositive Pampisford, that we fought against in 2008.
