Work is still ongoing to establish a new estimated cost for the Shrewsbury North West Relief Road, amid concerns it could spiral.
Council officials said the predicted cost of the road had been slashed by £7 million to £81 million just over a year ago.
Councillor Rosemary Dartnall, the Labour representative for Bayston Hill, Column and Sutton, asked the council's cabinet infrastructure lead Dean Carroll for an updated cost at the latest full council meeting. Mr Carroll said:"The engagement with Balfour Beatty on the North West Relief Road has not concluded and there are a number of areas requiring further clarification. The work to update the project cost estimate is ongoing."Approximately £4m has been spent on ground investigations and analysis along the length of the North West Relief Road with final investigations ongoing.
Councillor Dartnall also asked:"Does the administration remain convinced that this is a viable and worthy project, despite sound arguments that show it to be outdated, unlikely to relieve congestion, counter to net zero targets and poor value for taxpayers’ money?"
