I want to make the point that I take absolutely no credit for this - I am just passing on some good Whittlesey news. Our local MP Steve Barclay has fought hard for this deal, ably assisted I must say by my fellow County Councillor Ralph Butcher and also Fenland Councillor Alex Miscandlon - and they have had to be totally robust in making this case, the proposed deal was nothing like what has been achieved.
Martin represents Whittlesey at Cambridgeshire County Council, a Fenland District Council and sits on Whittlesey Town Council.
It is fantastic news, I was speaking to the EA yesterday about this as it's been going on for such a long time. However, I do hope some of the work is completed by local companies rather than the big national boys that normally work for the EA.
