More Support from our MP

Thisishertsfordshire carries the latest views of St Albans' MP Anne Main. Speaking after Tesco unveiled its new plans, she says,

"These revised plans indicate that the majority of locally listed houses will now be saved, refurbished and remarketed as family homes. I welcome the fact that Tesco isn't now planning to tear down characterful local properties but I am unhappy that Inkermann Rd homes are still under threat."

"I know that residents are heartily sick of the tatty appearance of the London and Alma Road areas and are frustrated by the fact that these houses, which could have provided family homes, have been lying idle and falling into disrepair.

"Despite the revisions these new store proposals are still too big and the store will inevitably cause traffic mayhem in the local area.

"I still maintain that this is the wrong store in the wrong place."

Thanks for the support!

Ms Main says that a new grocery store will cause traffic mayhem in the area. Worse than the very long queue of cars all the way up London Road to the A1081 at about 11:30 last Saturday morning, possibly the consequence of an incident on the M25?
