In 2020, we asked for help finding M62 J24a, referenced in Local Plans but removed after the Planning Inspector told no delivery prospects.
Four years later, J24a is back (by 2050) —in cash-strapped Calderdale's latest infrastructure delivery plan. If only they could find another £50 - £70 million.
Here's a recap on a post we've already shared elsewhere. We conducted analysis on the large-scale borrowing Calderdale Council proposes to fund private developers in South-East Calderdale. Question is: Why is a cash-strapped council borrowing money to fund speculative private sector developers?
