[It is part of a £110 million project to provide
a new route to ease traffic on the A16]


[Residents have blasted the council for
building a £50 million 'bridge to nowhere' after
it ran out of money while building it.
The bridge over the planned
Spalding Western Relief Road in Lincolnshire
was constructed between 2022 and 2024.
However it will not be finished until at least
2030 because the county council cannot afford
to complete the project.]

I expect to hear news of sackings, but I know I won't.

The Conservatives certainly made a mess of this.
It may be interesting seeing what the lot that's just been voted in now do as to this mess.
