Decision details

Consideration was given to the work necessary to support the investigation of a new preferred route for the Poynton Relief Road which could then be incorporated as a protected line in the emerging Local Plan. 

The report included details of the anticipated timescale required to prepare a submission for devolved Local Major Transport Scheme Funding.  In addition the work proposed would better inform the continuing dialogue with Stockport Council on the interface of Poynton /Relief Road with the SEMMMS scheme at Chester Road.
