Project Withdrawn

The A483 Pant to Llanymynech Bypass Scheme was considered by the West Midlands Regional Transport Board as part of the Regional Prioritisation in 2006.  This is where the Region considers the relative priority of major schemes in the region.  They advised that this scheme was a low priority due to its low cost benefit score and the modest contributions it was thought to make towards economic development and housing in the Region. 

Following this decision, we completed a detailed review of the scheme to assess whether its cost could be reduced whilst maintaining a substantial proportion of its benefits.  This study concluded that possible smaller scale solutions along this route would still offer poor value for money.

Subsequently we have been instructed by the Minister to stop developing the scheme.  It could be revisited in the future if the Region decides that it does become a priority however at this stage we have no plans to develop the scheme in the foreseeable future.  Therefore the scheme is no longer included in our Programme of Major Schemes (Regional) as outlined in our Business Plan.
