Government updates ADZ plans

Published: 2009-07-02 14:30:31

Housing minister John Healey received a positive response from a number of local authorities to his request for potential infrastructure pilot schemes that could make use of accelerated development zone (ADZ) funding.
 
Birmingham’s City Region Board has endorsed the development in principle of an ADZ for eight transport infrastructure projects across six of the seven participating authorities in the region at its most recent meeting.
