Shrewsbury’s controversial North West Relief Road has been approved.
The plan for the road was passed by Shropshire Council’s Northern Planning Committee after a four-hour meeting in the council chamber at Shirehall.The vote was conditional on the conditions relating to the application coming back to the committee for approval.
Committee member Geoff Elner, who represents Ellesmere, said he and the residents of his ward supported the scheme, but asked what assurances there were that Environment Agency concerns over potential impacts on bore holes supplying Shrewsbury’s water would be addressed. He said: “The EA has effectively said we will discuss conditions with you should the local planning authority be persuaded to decide to grant planning permission, rather than what we would normally expect - the EA would agree conditions in advance of the meeting.”
An effort to defer the application, proposed by Lib Dem Committee member Councillor David Vasmer, and supported by Green Party Councillor Julian Dean failed by six votes to five.
