JUDICIAL REVIEW OF CONDITION 99


Local campaigners led by CPRE Wiltshire Branch and a representative from the Lydiard Tregoz Parish Council have issued HIGH COURT PROCEEDINGS against Swindon Borough Council’s decision to discharge Condition 99 in relation to the Front Garden development.

Condition 99 is critical to the feasibility of the tunnel route (via Hay Lane/Wharf Road and then J16 /M4) to give access from the new development lnto West Swindon.

A rail bridge route (the Southern Relief Road) that was originally proposed and favoured by local people was rejected by Swindon Borough Council (SBC) when it was ‘minded to grant permission’ to itself for the development, including the tunnel, in January 2004.
