Stop the NDR at the airport
We call on Norfolk County Council to stop the NDR at the airport and instead prioritise spending on local services and socially useful facilities such as health centres.
Why is this important?
The construction of the Norwich Northern Distributor Road (NDR) from Postwick to Norwich Airport will cost over £133 million, with UK taxpayers funding £88 million via the Department for Transport.
However local councils intend to spend at least a further £45 million of Norfolk taxpayers’ money to extend the road by 4 miles to the A1067 - a double-whammy for Norfolk residents. This at a time when budgets for the emergency services, health and social care, libraries, museums and education are being slashed. This is socially, financially and environmentally reckless.
Please sign this petition to urge the council to put people before roads.
