Old people cannot even fetch their own shopping as they cannot climb the underpass and have to have help. I think it’s disgusting. WE NEED A LOCAL SHOP IN THE MEANTIME!!!

the twist in the tail again the main man in charge at Tesco over the Yardley developement is off the project, now there is a Lady in charge Ms Jane McFarland tel no 01707 634183 now she says they will not know until Aprill 20th and they then have to put out the building work to tender. She is in touch with our MP John Hemmings who is backing her all the way. So this is all we know for now

Mr Knight Adams now has the right to appeal. In the past he has waited until 2 days before his time is up to appeal. The appeal takes 3 to 6 months again depending on whether or not Parliament is on summer break. If things go through smoothly the actual road would start November this year. with the shops and Tesco starting too. So it will be 2012 before we see any improvement. Don’t hold your breath the Olympic Games will come and go and we will still be in a mess.
