I am looking forward to a busy first week back after the conference recess with many meetings with colleagues in the diary. The Camelford bypass was included in the redirection of funds from HS2 and I will be seeking further details on how this will be distributed to the project.
As you will have seen in the news last week, the government has made a firm decision to cancel the northern stage of the HS2 project and reallocate funding to other infrastructure programmes across the country.
