First victory for Westbury Bypass campaign

22 February: The White Horse Alliance against the Westbury Bypass in Wiltshire have won a key battle to get their public inquiry postponed.

The inquiry start date had been set at the convenience of roadbuilders Wiltshire County Council, without consultation with the Alliance, whose expert witnesses were already booked up.  Earth Rights Solicitors, acting for the Aliance, stated that this was unfair. The Government's Treasury Solicitors agreed and have cancelled the inquiry date. A new date will be set next month, with agreement of the council and objectors.
