Busy Shrewsbury road set for major safety project as part of Government's growth plan

Belle Vue Road has been selected as one of 138 roads and infrastructure projects that the Government aims to fast-track.

Belle Vue Road, also known as the A5191, has been selected as one of 138 roads and infrastructure projects that the Government aims to fast-track to get Britain"back on the road to recovery".

“That is why I welcome the A5191 Shrewsbury Safer Road Scheme being selected as one of the high-quality infrastructure projects under the new Growth Plan to boost the economy. This Conservative government is slashing red tape to incentivise investment and deliver new roads, offshore wind farms, and housing.

In a letter to Mr Kawczynski, Transport Secretary Anne-Marie Trevalyan said:"The Government has put planning reform at the centre of their growth agenda. This is because investment and economic growth can be hampered by lengthy and disproportionate planning processes. Transport is an economic enabler and driver of growth and the quicker we can deliver projects, the quicker this growth can be realised.

"You will also be aware that once schemes have managed to navigate the planning process, they can often be held up for years, due to multiple judicial reviews. I’m pleased to say that consideration is also being given to options to avoid judicial review claims which cause unnecessary delays to delivery."
