Speed reduction scheme: mis-reporting in the Cambridge News

Earlier this week I was asked by the Cambridge News for my views on the proposed Melbourn 20 mph trial scheme, which the Traffic Management Area Joint Committee will be considering at their January 18th meeting.

My written response:  “As the representative body for the village, Melbourn Parish Coucnil has taken a strong lead in endorsing firt steps toward a trial scheme,and I will be continuing to support their consensus at the Traffic Management Area Joint Committee’s meeting on Monday. This includes some important suggestions for technical alterations to the layout of the scheme based on feedback from the public consultation.” 

Unfortunately my written response was not used, and the article published today gives a very different picture.  I have contacted the paper and they are aware of the mistake.
