Charlotte MacKenzie welcomes transport funding boost for Cornwall

Today’s Labour Government’s funding of £3.85 Million for a transport scheme to support the building of much needed local housing has been welcomed by Charlotte MacKenzie.

Housing Minister John Healey’s green light for Chiverton Cross means that much-needed improvements can go ahead.

Charlotte MacKenzie, Labour’s prospective MP for Truro and Falmouth said:

“This is good news from the Labour Government. It’s putting money into a scheme to invest in our local economy and support much needed new homes.”

Housing Minister John Healey MP said:

“This will create construction jobs, help build the new homes we need and make sure we have the transport in place to support development.

“We are investing to help the country through recession. We are not simply stepping aside to let the recession run its course as the Conservative Governments did in the past.”
