BAILRIGG GARDEN VILLAGE POSITION STATEMENT

JANUARY 2017

'It is important to note that whilst this area of separation will be kept free from general development uses, it occupies an important area of land which is critical to ensure access to the Garden Village from the M6 motorway and the reconfigured Junction 33. As a result the creation of a new access road through the area of separation will be supported by the Council.'
